I feel weird when any hiring manager and Ask for "current ctc". This practice is usually seen in India.
When I started looking jobs outside India. They don't ask this question instead they tell their budget. I don't know. Why we have this culture?
30% and 20% hike as per industry standard (Dude who the hell made this as industry standard)

Same feeling

Because you live in a country with population explosion

There is a engineer on they street corner begging for job

So by logic, supply is more than demand

Thus companies and HR are in strong position of negotiating

Thinking about switching in house jobs from one bank to another. Current job is great for work life balance but no promotion prospects and pay is below market.

Hello, I recently was reached out to by an in-house recruiter at a similar but slightly different company than the one I currently work for. The recruiter provided a base range and an OTE range. The lower end of that range is what I am currently making. The higher end of that range is almost 200k more than my current comp. The role is almost identical. I wasn’t looking to move, but that higher end range would set my family up very nicely for our goals. But I am happy at my current company. Help?

Hello everyone,

I had my second technical interview two weeks ago and I had emailed the recruiter to check for any progress on my application. I just received an email saying they want to talk to me over call.

Is this positive or negative ?
