Any tips you might have on getting started there, how to go about the on boarding process, or anything in general will be a huge help!! I’m a little nervous bc this is my first role in the tech industry but also very excited!

The market's really good right now. I think 200 is within range, though you may be able to push for more based on skillet and YoE.
The tricky thing with Hired is that it feels like a line in the sand when you put a number down. Like I might be willing to take a base of 195 with a TC of 350+ or make the base 220 and keep TC the same, but there's no way to specify that. For that reason, on Hired, I tend to make the salary number my minimum for a new offer plus a little bit, and then see what companies come in with. I've found most come in right at what number you put and then some will try to come above to make themselves stand out.
Edit: maybe try making the minimum 215 and see what sort of interest you get and from what sort of companies. You might find you don't like those (it'll probably end up being larger companies or finance companies) and then you'd know where you wanna be.
Absolutely. Good luck!

I haven't tried Hired, but in my experience recruiters contact EVERYONE they think is even remotely qualified for the job.
For sure
I used Hired recently and got a lot of interview requests and actually interviewed at a bunch of places and got several offers through it. If you’re just looking for interview practice then no need to change it and get some practice in. But if you’re going to take interview in hopes of leveling up, then I agree with what Glassdoor 1 said. Recruiters see the number you list for “minimum base” as expected total comp on their end - so I would change it to a much higher number to weed out companies reaching out with offers that won’t meet your standard. In every initial call with recruiters I had to clarify that by listing “200k, it was the absolute minimum I’d go on base if bonus and RSUs added up to my TC expectation.” Market’s really good now - if I were you I’d list that number way higher than your current TC (maybe 500k? Or list 250k and when talking to a recruiter say that’s what you want for base) to see who responds - especially since you’re not really looking, what’s the risk? Maybe only FAANG will reach out but it’s worth having those initial recruiter calls to see. Ended up taking an offer from a company I applied to outside of Hired, but used my other 4 offers as leverage.
Edit: I’m in Denver Metro, about 7 years experience.
You should keep it as available just to see what they got for you
What TC stands for?
Oh thanks - that makes sense. Just joining job market out of school, would have felt like an idiot. I have wondered a lot about why I hear such differences in the size of people's pay and now I know.
Up it and see what happens : )

I mean, if you're not looking to jump ship now, what harm could it do to raise it and see if you keep getting bites?
