Hey you guys I started my first professional job out of grad school at this firm called Aprio. I started in September of 2023 and I got surprisingly laid off at the beginning of February. When I was working at Aprio I was making 65k, with that said though I now got an offer from a firm that wants to pay me 70k. I am still very new to the profession as I only have less than a year of experience. With that said though do you think 70k is a good offer for someone who is still somewhat new still.@

It sounds fine. If you were making 65k and only worked there a few months, it’s great to be making more at the next job.

Without additional context there is no way to know. I know a recruiter at Aprio but nothing more. What’s your graduate degree? What’s the position or position type?

You can always negotiate the first offer. Always ask for more but don’t be unreasonable - if they say no, you can say you tried. If they say yes, you got what you wanted.
