I wish I get to go to more conference such as AWS reinvent etc…
Do you think SE should go or we should stay put to close more deal instead of going.

Depending on your company and industry, SE's usually get invited to conferences like AWS.

Though, if you have a product that isn't too technical most AE's are capable of delivering demos etc.

I guess I’m just not part of the lucky bunch that gets to go

Conferences are a blast, love attending and presenting at them

If there are customers who wants to meet, absolutely. Booth duties are mostly a waste of time from my experience without meetings set up by AEs

I started interviewing early Oct with a company that reached out via recruiter.

The recruiter said they'd be making an offer but it's now been three weeks. Anyone else had the process drag on like this? Meanwhile I'm taking other interviews and was offered a promotion at current company, but was very interested in this one. What would you do?

No response whatsoever. Will emailing them again be inappropriate? I desperately need this job

Hi there. Ex Deloitte Sr Mgr here, currently in tech pre sales (SaaS / MarTech). Recently spoke to both Salesforce and Adobe recruiters for roles that I thought were lateral moves (Sr SA / Sr SC), therefore I did not proceed with the selection process. The recruiters from both companies told me they typically hire at that level, and people are considered for promotion to Principal in 1 to 2 years. I found that odd. Is that right? What’s the typical TC for SAs and SCs there? (15+ yrs exp).
