Head hunter cold messages on LinkedIn: “I have the perfect role for you at a great independent agency”

I message back asking where and they respond “it’s actually a bunch of roles at your level. Care to chat?

Red flag, or is that just how it goes?

Just how it goes. But if it's the same message I just got, that great independent shop is in Wisconsin and you've never heard of it. And they want you to relocate. To Wisconsin.

funnylike

We'll also accept Wississippi up here. There's no shop here worth relocating for, but I'm curious which one it is.

agreed with VP1, plus also they wanna get you on the phone vs if they tell you up front, you might say no right away or ignore

That independent Wisconsin shop certainly sent word out to what feels like a million people today.

I got one from a third-party recruiter on LinkedIn today, too. I hate how cryptic they are with telling you about a job. It makes me automatically suspicious even though this is what they often do. Especially when they want me to send my resume before we even chat. 🚩🚩🚩I'm like I don't want to commit until I know what I'm getting into.

Hi Fishes, Please help.

I have 2 offers 1. Start up 60 LPA EM role, 40K ESPOS , 2 . Well known public listed company 51 lpa ( Lead Role) 90K RSUs . I said yes to second after some negotiation. HR was not willing to pay more than this even though it is just 20% hike from my current salary. But I accepted the offer as i wanted it badly. Now I got offer from start up as well (1) , can i still ask her to consider the 2nd offer and pay me accordingly? Or it will lead to offer cancelation:(
