McKinsey & Company I had a second round of interview with McK 1 week back but no one got back to me yet.
I only received a link to login to McK website where the status my job application shows “In Progress”.
I am not sure whether it takes so much time for McK to respond after the second round.Is anybody aware of this?

Have an offer at Citi for 120K as an AVP in the NY office. Currently making 92K at my current role. Is this a fair offer? I currently WFH pretty much full time at my current role but it seems like this one requires 2-3 days in the office - and this is something I’m very hesitant about. Thoughts on how to approach this?
Im not searching for a new job but an acquaintance reached out about a similar role at a similar energy company.Turns out 2 ppl threw my name in the hat. I looked into it and the position was posted 2 weeks ago.Their director wants to meet.I bet pay is one of the first things to be discussed so that no one’s time is wasted.Am I crazy for not wanting to entertain it for less than 20-25% base pay increase?Is it selfish to ask for more? I’m sure most salary conversations end in negotiation anyways?

This is the way. Act like you're playing with house money. It makes things so much easier.
That's a good strategy, but there can be a cost, of course. If someone can afford to walk away, it's a good tactic to employ. The problem, especially in today's rough job market, is that walking away can mean considerable time passes until the next opportunity presents itself.
Indeed.
They may simply say. No Thank you, we can’t afford you.
Yes. Nothing felt better than interviewing while I still had a job. I flat out said I’d love to come but I’m in no rush to leave :) if this doenst pan out I’ll look for something else.
I love this! mindset can be hugely helpful
