Finally snagged a meta interview. Any tips for initial screening call? How to approach salary and TC conversation. I’m in Tier 3 market. Current TC is around 210 and aiming for 275+. Background: I’m a Sr. Mgr equivalent at slalom (13 YOE) and interviewing for an IC role. How have others approached this without showing their cards?

Find out exactly what level this position is for. The interview will be adjusted and scored based on what level they are hiring for. Don’t let them tell you that level will depend on how you perform. That’s bs to me and I’ve never known of anyone actually getting bumped into a higher level without asking for it.
