Hello!

I'm asking for help as I'm interested in switching to Solutions Engineering from a Software Engineering background.

How do I make the switch?

Do you have any materials to suggest that could help to land a job as a Solutions Engineer?

Thanks a lot!

Hi 👋🏻 I have five years work experience, 2 are in consulting at EY London and I really want to move to the UAE (I speak Arabic fluently) would appreciate it if anyone can send a referral (happy to give you free Arabic lessons 😂)

I’m looking to transition into the private sector. My experience is in grants management, labor law discrimination, workforce development, private-public partnership, and general business operations. I’m a GS15 and worked in the 201 and 301 job series. Would a transferable lateral be to HR and at what level? I don’t have experience in compensation or benefits however.

I have a decent job and a growing firm. Clients are nice and not insane. Pay is good. But I don’t sync with my boss or team. They are very mean girls ish. Is that reason enough to quit after a few months?

What's the difference between Solution (Sales) Engineers, Customer Success, and Enterprise/Solution Architects?

Would love to know - do you guys typically see a big difference between Solutions Consultants versus Solutions Engineers? Inherently one sounds more technical than the other, but would love your take.

Additionally, what typical career paths do you see for SC/SEs to grow into? Ideally a path that leads to a lot of money (currently making just south of $200k)

Thanks!

Anyone working in AI? I have a AI Startup recruiter reaching out, curious how's business? CRM is getting kinda boring and I'm interested in branching out.

Hello, I've been offered an opportunity to become a sales engineer for the company I work for. We are a security system integrator based out of southern california. I will be supporting 6 sales people on my own what type of salary and compensation should I be expecting

I have 5 years of experience in IT/Cybersecurity. I wanted to make a move to be a Security Sales Engineer, based on a job description and a hiring manager reaching out to me via LinkedIn. This seems like a role I can leverage my knowledge as sort of a consultant for clients. The only thing I know about potential compensation is base salary would be 70% of the total income and the rest commissions. Glassdoor hasn't helped much. What's a good starting point for salary expectations?

Hey All. I had my 2nd round interviews for a Lead Solution Engineer role at Salesforce on Monday (2 days ago). It was w/ 2 separate SEs, and I thought both interviews went very well. Have yet to hear from the recruiter, though, which seems odd. Especially given how responsive the recruiter's been prior to this.

Is that normal? Do I just need to be patient or should I mentally prepare for a rejection? Thanks!

Make 235k tc in tech consulting. Is there a role on the sales side where i can transition to and make more? 9 yoe.

I’ve been with my company for 5 years and have never asked for a raise, I’ve accepted annual review we get without question. I’ve now realised I’m getting paid significantly less than the market rate. I’m getting job offers with almost 40% increase. I know my male peers at my company get paid significantly more than me. I love my job and my company but I don’t know how to ask for a raise 🙈 I know I deserve it but don’t know how to ask! Any guidance please ?

Hey everyone! I recently graduated this past December and started my current role January 24th. Just this morning I had a recruiter from Meta reach back out to me about a role I applied too last month. Should i schedule an interview with the recruiter? What if it goes well? Would it look bad if I quit my current position to take this role if I end up getting an offer? One reason I would want to switch is because the pay would most likely be a lot higher at Meta then in my current position.
