Found a dream Salesforce-related role and even got past the phone interview, but the salary is really low, so I had to withdraw. Just venting, but I’m so sad they wouldn’t budge on the salary. It’s even below industry standards.

Similar situation for me and I withdrew as well. I was made the verbal offer. In my case - the role was lower than current one

Yep, same. That’s okay. There will be other opportunities.

You’ll see that a lot. People underestimate or are actually take aback/offended by the market rate for Salesforce admins and consultants and try to squeeze someone in cheap.

My recent experience: discussed salary early. They knew I was coming from consulting so well compensated. I thought I might have to take pay cut to move into industry role but was pleasantly surprised. Ended up accepting role with 15% bump in total comp and seemingly exciting work to be done.

I don't know if this is a recent change but I’m seeing postings for junior copywriter/community manager roles. Have these roles always been attached or posted at a junior level? Is this merged role worth considering as someone young in the industry with more traditional intern and freelance copy experience.

Had an interview for an associate position at Citi. Interviewee was based in London and I’m in NYC. The only interview time that worked was 6am. I was barely functioning and feel like I truly messed up in my answers because I couldn’t not think clearly. I have another with the head of the division next week again at 6am (pre determined before this interview). It was also hard because the division’s core work is private enough that there was not much prep I could do beforehand. Tips?

I just got an offer for a senior software developer role at $150k starting. It is a small start up with 28 people in the team and AI driven. My recent salary was $118 so it is quite a jump for me and I really liked the VP I spoke to. Very somber and smart guy.
However, I have several other interviews coming up ranging from big corporate to app companies. Shall I decline the current offer to explore more or accept it but push my start day to later so I could stillbdo the other interviews?

I slightly dropped my MacBook and apparently (slightly) damaged the keyboard and trackpad as per service Center. I don’t see any visible damage to the system but that’s what they say and are charging me about 28k for this even though my system is in warranty period (will complete a year in a few days). Are there any workaround for this? Like I can use external keyboard or maybe negotiate, anything else?
