I quoted my salary to the recruiter and I think I lowballed myself (I’d be moving states and I didn’t do enough research, rookie mistake I know). How should I approach this with the recruiter?

You can always ask for more at offer stage, I wouldn't worry too much about it !

Did they ask your salary? Are they in NY? If so, you have them by the pubes. That's a 125k fine. You can ask for whatever you want.

I haven’t received an offer yet btw, I just quoted it when he first reached out

Phew! Ok. I said around 50, but I really should be around 55-60 according to my research.

I was quoting my expectations, he didn’t ask previous thank god.

I don’t know who said this other than Via Instagram but “Know your worth, and then add tax.” Good luck with the position

agree with the above and if it comes to offer stage, be sure to discuss relo and cost of living adjustment.

I’ve been at my company for 10+ years. I’m not happy with the culture but have flexibility I enjoy, seniority for the time I’ve been here, and pays well. An new job opportunity came up as a Tax Manager but in a different industry which could expand my skillset in different ways, but is not as flexible and the pay is 20k lower. If I stay, I will be Director in few years. What will look better on a resume in the future, continued growth in 1 company or experience in more than 1 company?

I currently work as a quant/middle office at a very well reputed mutual fund, but this is not a market facing role. TC: 125k, but they have a very generous profit sharing plan that contributes 25% of my pay to retirement accts if I stay for 6 years, so ~160k?

Any thoughts?
