We're in the cohort system now dawg. Where you been?

I am obviously talking about a new firm dawg.

That wasn't obvious dawg.

Sorry dawg! But I hope it's obvious now dawg

But to answer your question, yes, it's very possible. It's about marketing yourself. Also include your bonus (you can include the range and saying something like "I expect my bonus to be 12%, that needs to be taken into account"). Plus future earnings - I told a firm recently that when I get promoted next year I will be at $100k, and they beat that.

Why do you think you were low balled? Most companies flat line it by performance rating

Looking for referrals for a Technical Sales Executive position that is Remote (USA), possibly in the industrial sector. Last year I made $109k at AT&T so I'm hoping to at least stay in the same ball park but want a change. I have lots of experience selling IT/telecom, but I also have a Mechanical Engineering background so I'm a good fit for a wide range of technical sales. I have been thinking a role in the industrial sector with a longer sales cycle may be a good fit, can travel up to 25%
