EY
I got an interview for Contract - Audit Manager (Remote) role for EY. Are the interviews done remotely or does EY require interviewees to come into the office for interviews?
Just trying to manage my plan as I am currently traveling and the interview came up as an unexpected opportunity.
Thank you!

My current CTC 13 lpa/8 YOE, Python developer. Im selected for TCS, i told expected 25 lpa, she told we can give max 19 lpa, i told i have to think, she cut call, next day she told to join call to take screenshot with ID. It's been a week, they didn't send CTC break up, status is "evaluation in progress". They rejected me? Can I expect offer? TIA Tata Consultancy

Anything between 12-13 will be a safe bet. Often HR put profiles on hold in case the hike is beyond 100% (unless you have an offer in hand)
Go for 12.5/12.75 as fixed.
This!

You can’t ask for more than a 100% hike, but considering your experience, it seems you’re currently on the lower end of the salary range. Aim for an offer with a comfortable CTC, then explore other opportunities to leverage it for a better offer. While it’s not the ideal approach, if your primary goal is to increase your CTC, this might be the most effective strategy.
Pro
No. If you’re 30+ and your current CTC is low, it’s time to focus on improving your skills and targeting a better package. Start by aiming for a 50% hike on your current LPA. If you get a 50% offer, accept it and try negotiating for a counteroffer. If that doesn’t work, take the offered hike and join the company.
After a year or a year and a half, review your growth and salary hikes. If you’re not satisfied, consider moving on. This approach will help you steadily increase your CTC while gaining valuable experience across different companies.
Some companies, especially startups or mid-level product firms, may offer a 100% hike depending on your skills, the technology you specialize in, and how soon you can join. Getting into top-tier companies is more challenging and depends on your resume and project work, so make sure your profile stands out.
The key is to keep trying. This strategy has worked for many, but it’s up to you to decide if it aligns with your goals.
