Thank you! :)

Hope your interview went well! Just curious, how did you come upon this specific role - was it through a general online search or did a recruiter reach out to you? Also, if you applied directly online, did your focus on a specific format for your resume/cover letter?

Thank you! Still working with the process and waiting. I had someone in my network on LinkedIn and I called them to say I’m open to roles and asked if they knew of any in the team that we both were part of previously and they recommended

Is this google cloud? If so, I would guess base is anywhere b/w 150-180 but I’d ask for 250-300k+ in equity

Well, it’s not google cloud. It’s for their GRC practice and the primary recruiter mentioned it’s a “selling” kind of role

For an L6 role, would aim for at least 400-500k TC.

400-500k would be swe in ny/sf. 300-400 is SA in TX.

What company? EY ?

Lmao

What’s your yoe? Sorry to be bearer of bad news but you will most likely come in at L4/5 given your current role.

That’s the equivalent of a b4 recruiter saying that you will come in as a consultant with a path to manager.

Many roles at Google scoped broadly with L4-6 target levels.
