First - thank you so much to this amazing group for all the encouragement and advice! I now potentially have 2 offers (both verbal) at this time. Both amazing companies. I have 2 questions:
1. I have a month's vacation planned for end of this year. I didn't mention it during the interview process (it was not intentional). Should I mention this to the recruiter when they come to me with the initial offer?
2. Some tips for salary negotiations please?

They haven't yet. Having the first offer discussion tomorrow. I will be expected to give some number, but given that it's a role with people management involved which I haven't done before, I am not sure what to ask for. The process with this one has been so long that I don't remember we ever had a discussion about the salary expectations in the beginning.

Never give a number first.

For 1. Review the offer and complete the negotiations and once you have the final offer let them know.
2. Did they give you a general idea of the compensation package?

I'd wait until you have the final offer and then just let them know, more as a formality. This type of thing happens all the time, and it sounds like there will be plenty of time for them to prepare. Congrats!!!

1. Absolutely, they will mostl likely ask you anyways. 2. What did they offer you?

You probably should mention this to the recruiter. Plus, do some research about your role and the salary people are getting for having a similar role. If they try to low-ball you, you can argue that based on your research this is the amount that you believe is fair.

It is okay to not mention it in the interview. I would just tell them ASAP so they know. It really shouldn't be a big deal.

Hi Everyone, Kindly consider it as a panic button.
I got an offer from an company in June 2022. I put my 90 days NP in TCS.
Now with only 20 days remaining, my Person of Contact infomed me that they're keeping my offer on hold and postponing it to 27th oct. They also told me that I should look for other offers as it is also not confirmed.
Only 17 days left on my notice. Any lead in Data Analyst role with 1.5 years of experience with SQL, Tableau, Excel, Python (Pandas) will be of great help.

Boutique I have been eyeing has billable hour requirement of 1500-1600 and comes with a 20-25% paycut. Is this a stupid idea and should I grind it out until I can move in house? Will this ruin my opportunities down the road?
