I am trying to get out on Contract Negotiations and get into strategy consulting but recently got invited to apply for a Contract negotiation position at a sustainability consulting firm by a head hunter. This position is with a fast growing start up and would allow for great career growth, experience, and over 100k in salary (only make $70k now). Any advice on how to weigh these very different opportunities?

I’d ask myself if I hated contract negotiation or just wanted a change? I’d apply and hear more about the role and the company. I’d make sure I ask questions that will help me decide if I can see myself doing this for another 2 years or so and then take it from there. Good luck!

Thank you very much!
