Had a final round Friday that I think I did okay on and the recruiter asked if I had time to speak today. Feeling nervous because I’m feeling as though it could be a rejection. I know they had another candidate in the pipeline that hadn’t finished the process yet so I don’t think it’s an offer :/

Hello,

This is an interesting one. So I work on a small finance team at a tech startup. I have only one peer who is female, about 4 years older than me. She looked at the payroll and realized I make significantly more than her. I also work significantly less hours than her because I work on the technical side while she is operational. I think all of my years in consulting allowed me to get hired at a premium. She sorta confronted me about the pay gap and I skirted the issue...
