I am a technical recruiter with three years of experience. I am currently interviewing at a series B tech start up located in CA for a fully remote position. I am currently in Texas and don’t have to pay state income taxes. I am making about 90 K and would love to bump up my salary from there. My question is, what is a fair salary to ask for that will factor in both the new income tax and a raise? My other question is what is a fair salary in general for somebody with three years experience?

Add about 30% more to the salary that you would want in Texas. That will account for Taxes and the cost of living. Even though you will be working remotely, they will still consider you as if you were living in CA.

Honestly, your current salary is pretty much in line with the average tech recruiter salary in CA, so I'm not sure how much of a bump you can expect. I'd say maybe like 10% or so. Also, keep in mind that many companies pay remote employees based on the state they live in, not the state the company is based in, so even if CA comp is higher, you might be offered average comp for TX. Just making you aware.

I think the idea of 30-40% (if you're feeling ambitious) is a pretty solid plan. But like R1 said, some places to adjust for cost of living based on where you're located...I would see what they say first before you give them a number though

Thoughts on “special” salary grades. I just found out the VP I was offered is not a grade 12 like most comparable roles (verified). Also not an 11, but an 11A. Slightly higher than an 11, a good bit lower than a 12. All due to the fact that it’s a leap from my current position. Why should that matter…..shouldn’t it pay what it should pay if I am selected, rather that curving down towards my current rate?
