What exactly have you done in m&a advisory? Because my understanding is that it's deals strategy that does the cool deal work like commercial due diligence and growth strategy.

Get promoted to manager first and then exit into a Director role. If you leave at Associate it's more of a crapshoot. Maybe could try for a manager role.

Would you have*

I've done commercial and operational due diligences. Also the standard IMO pre-close, day 1 and execution items.

That's awesome. Sounds like you'll have a good resume for BD jobs then. Prob pay better on a whole than consulting but not many available. My friend went from Deloitte S&o to Nike BD, for example.

Hi all! Is anyone here in Underwriting? Just want some thoughts on this as i’ve recently gotten an offer for an Underwriting Associate position and have never done any salary negotiations before. Does it seem unrealistic for my counter offer to be 12k more than the original offer? Considering that the original offer is roughly 8k less than the market salary. Plus i’m also accounting for wiggle room as i’m not expecting them to actually agree with the full 12k counter offer

I think I made a faux pas during a discussion with a recruiter when asked what my salary expectations were. I KNOW not to give my number first but I was so caught off guard by the question since it was our initial discussion that I just blurted out a range. I’m afraid that I’ve now locked myself into a range with little room to negotiate if extended an offer. Any advice for how to proceed?
