For those who are interviewing for a different firm literally only for better pay but same job, how do you guys frame your story? Getting underpaid at current spot so found another role where I’ll be doing exactly what I’m doing now at a competitor where comp is much better.

Don’t think too hard on it. We all want money at the end of the day - it shouldn’t be so taboo. It’s okay to seek more money. That’s the only reason we have jobs.

Just say something like “I see more growth at this firm” or something. Or say the client base they have is more interesting (if you know it).

Looking to get into SaaS sales but my experience is in construction and fine furniture (I was a sales manager and was able to lead my team of 4 people to consistently hit 450k monthly targets).

I have also considered a sales analyst role considering that I am moderately versed in Salesforce and have worked both the customer facing and sales generating side. TIA!

In some cases, for life.

Hey guys ,
I was a fresher when i joined wipro
My manager has given me rating 1 in confirmatory appraisal on may 18 may which happened after completion of 1 year at wipro.
I raised the issue of rating with my manager immediately , he convinced me not to worry , ratings are already submitted , I asked him to resubmit cause i don't deserve rating 1
So he said he will look if that is possible but didn't changed .Now after 3 months they are pressurizing me to put a resignation,what should i do?
