What should my requested salary be for a Senior Intelligence Analyst position with CrowdStrike ? I have a bachelors degree and 5 years of experience as an intelligence analyst. Current salary is 56k in NC, but when I was in DC I was making 86k (big locality change)… which makes me confused on what I should expect for a remote job.
Is anyone hiring? Project / Product Management ?

If you are paying them on commission exactly why do you think they would make you a priority? They only earn money when you hire? They have a quota to meet to keep their job.
If they think you aren't going to move forward with those candidates, they are looking for new homes for them or spending their time on placements that will close. Maybe offer to pay something per interview. Something that shows your serious and value their time and their candidates.

I said if. He did not say in house, but the premise is similar. He just has more leverage. In house still has metrics and they only have so many hours in the day. Do you understand their metrics? Knowing how they look good, help know how best to get what you need.
You have a good pipeline, someone else may need more help, or they may have been told someone else is a priority. I doubt they would be dragging out scheduling your candidates as a passive aggressive move. It's not in their interest. Do they do scheduling for people you source or just the ones they do? Or they the coordinating point? If not, would it be helpful or detrimental?
In general, I " I really need your help on this". They are like everyone else. They like to be valued. They tend to be far enough down the food chain that stroking is often effective.
This is for corporate in house recruiters.

To the EY person who was nasty but at least had the good sense to delete or change their response. OP did not state it was in house. Many companies use both. Wrongly, I read "already have a strong pipeline" to mean what he was getting internally. I should have asked for clarification before answering.
When I hire, I give the go or no go on hiring, as I will get stuck with the candidate of my choosing. I decide on the starting salary, based on the last salary since it’s my BU budget and avoid grudges in team. HR is just there to ensure every process is followed and documented. I would never rely on them to discover the right candidate, much less in the interview or negotiations process.
Of course. If you pause sourcing then they have less opportunity to place candidates. If you pause sourcing with candidate that they have worked part-way through the process you are definitely cooked. If you are rejecting candidates then either you are providing unclear or impossible requirements to them which causes them to waste time or they are not good to begin with.
