Ooh I like this question.. so I usually schedule my interviews for the days I’m working from home during my lunch break if it’s virtual and same is true for in person, so my coworkers don’t see how I’m dressed 😂 But if it’s a 2 hour interview and they told me before I would skip lunch another day during the week to use a 2 hour lunch break since my company don’t like to pay for OT

Same way we did it old school - either try to schedule it on your break or take time off work if need be. I'm hybrid, so I try and schedule interviews on the days I'm working from home.

In the car on my phone lol -- obviously that method is for virtual interviews. For in-person, I would just request time off from my job and go to the interview. No big deal.

Just graduated with Aerospace Engineering degree. I am interviewing for multiple positions at once with different companies. One gave me an offer and they want me to get back to them within 2 days. I still have other interviews scheduled and some for higher paying jobs (around 90k) What should I do?
I do like the company that gave me an offer but their base pay was 80k and they went up to 85k. Is asking for them to match the 90k too much? The position is associate systems engineer.

Hi Everyone,

Need your valuable insights. Having an YOE of 11 years and offered TechLead position with a CTC of 30 LPA (28.5 LPA Fixed) a month ago.

Though their WLB and culture seems good, I kept feeling that I am being lowballed which pushed me to give further interviews.

Received another offer for same role from another PBC for 35LPA (33 Fixed). Is it OK to ask the first company to revise the CTC (up to their best) where the DOJ is in 10 days?

Has anyone ever asked to renegotiate their salary after starting a job? I’m 2 months into my new job and I have far more responsibilities than what I was told. It’s a lot different than what was relayed in the posting and during the interviews. Additionally, they hired my counter part in as a senior manager which is at least $30k more than what I make. My peer has more experience so I expect that but I feel that I should be paid more, however I don’t want to leave a bad impression… any advice?
