As of now at this market, which pays more? Public accounting or industry?

I interviewed for an employed role and knocked my business plan pitch out the park, but could tell I disappointed them with my technical. By my own admission I’m lacking in this area as only have 1.5 years experience with a poor manager who only had me focus on biz dev.

They asked me what my salary expectations are but had already hinted my experience would knock me down a pay grade.

As it was 4 of them and 1 of me I said I would email them. How do I play this without lowballing myself?

Currently interviewing at CBRE for an analyst position… looking on Glassdoor it seems like the salaries are quite low. Anyone in the Vancouver office could confirm or deny? I am currently making 65k and would be looking for an offer around 75k.

I am looking to make a career change to HR. I currently make 75K as a sales and development coach. I had a recent offer for a state government position in a talent acquisition role but I’d be taking a $25K pay cut. I am extremely over qualified for the position but it could possibly be a stepping stone and gives me the time to acquire SHRM certifications and possibly start taking classes to get my MBA. My question is those currently in an HR role, would this move make sense to you?

Texans. Just got an offer from a V10 to relocate down and do litigation. Excited but the offer was 20k below market.

So give me names, who pays cravath in Houston?
