I’d take the opposite approach, don’t tell anyone your name unless you have to. Very hard to make a positive impression (without seeming like a brown-noser) and very easy to make a bad impression. Just lay low, ask your questions, blend in

Yeah

I’d put on a sport coat and nice belt, shoes. You are making an impression. While you are there, ask to talk to a professor or someone else that interests you and make them want you. This is how you not only get in, but get aid. And you can mention those interactions in your materials, interviews

C1 sounds kinda pessimistic no?

Hahahhaa. C1... !?

Hi!

I recently did a job interview and I made it clear to the HR my expectation salary is 60k a year, non negotiable.
Today I got the job offer and they are offering me 54k. My current company is making me 50k with tons of benefits which is why I am asking for 60k.

Should I accept the offer or renegotiate?

I recently had an initial interview for a technical recruiter position. The guy on the phone stated that this is not a 9-5 job and long hours are expected. I proceed to ask how much PTO is offered and he said that is not recommend within the first 6 months of working and the harder you work the more PTO you receive. From that conversation, I saw instant red flags. Any thoughts?

Im interviewing for an internal promotion at my current employer. I’ve previously expressed a lot of interest in this specific role and it’s well known throughout my division my interest. Even though I’ve conducted informational interviews before now to get a feel of the role, now that I’m going through the full interview process, it doesn’t seem like what I want to do any more. I’m considering withdrawing my application, but I’m afraid of the optics and future career at this company. Thoughts?
