Got a phone screen at BAH for a UX Strategist (Secret Clearance, Research based). There’s no salary insights on Google and was wondering if 125k is out of the question to discuss w/ recruiter.

I’d say it’s very possible, but expect to be low-balled and get ready for negotiations. But as B1 mentioned, you’ll need some consulting experience to justify the salary

Update: phone screen went well, the position will be within the Strategic Innovation Group. I think I can definitely get 125k. Thanks for the responses from BAH folks.

Couple of questions that may help me provide you with an answer:
1. Years of experience?
2. Are you coming from a competitor firm?
3. Do you know which group you are interviewing with? International, Strategic Innovation Group, or Commercial - probably okay. Everything else, probably not unless with 5+ years of experience and/or are coming from a competitor.

Hey, really appreciate the response! Hopefully it goes well.

That's great! Yeah, SIG (Strategic Innovation Group) bill rates are higher and therefore pay more. Most people I know in the SIG are happy. You landed in the right spot. Keep us posted if you end up joining!

Agreed!
