Guys...how to follow up with HR without sounding desperate?

Just ask them "I'm getting other calls, I was waiting for your feedback before considering other opportunities"

Asking once won't sound desperate but sending multiple mails, calling and messaging daily would.

so if they don't have an answer ask them when they can update.

The only message the HRs will get from this, is that you're sincere and trying to do the right things for your career development.

Simple answer - YOU CAN'T.

you are desperate and they know it. (applies to all tbh, not making a personal remark here)

Hi fishes,
I'm 22 and planning to take a life insurance. I'm comparing all policies and max life seems attractive as it has good claim settlement ratio and less premiums. But there is no office near our area. My worry is that if there is a need to claim in future, it can be done all online by my nominee? Is it recommended to take policy online in any platform(like policybazaar)?
Other options I'm considering are SBI life, HDFC life which offices are available in my locality.
Please guide

I am a python developer with an experience of 3.3 years. my current CTC is 7 lakhs.
How much salary can I expect If i switch now?

I got selected in LTI, the offered CTC is less than my current CTC, HR says they have budget constraints.

They were aware about my current CTC right from the first call.

I also shared the counter offer that I'm holding. (Offered CTC > Current CTC)
Switch won't make sense if I don't get the basic hike.

How can I convince them to revise my offer? YOE -3.2 yrs
