After you interview for a role, do you add the interviewers on LinkedIn? I feel a bit awkward when candidates add me but would like to know the general opinion

a little awkward but I guess it’s better to have more professional connections than too little.. never know who you’ll cross paths with again.

No and I don’t accept if they try to add me and I know we aren’t going to hire them.

funny

If its HR then I do connect as I've had many HR connections reach out with opportunities. If its the actual interviewer and fully knowing I didn't get the role then no. That is very awkward.

No. Maybe recruiters but never hiring managers

As an applicant, no, I never connect with people I interview with, only external recruiters. I feel it would be presumptuous. Only colleagues nowadays for me.

Question about remote job negotiations

I'm currently interviewing for a remote role for a company based in NY.

The thing is I'm based in a different city (southern U.S.)

My question is:

When it comes time to talk compensation, should I base the market rate for the role on my city of residence or NY?

Would it make sense to ask them directly how they determine comp for NY-bases vs. other city-based employees?

Anyone have experience with this?
