If a recruiter reached out to me saying that they’re looking for ADs to partner with solo CWs, do I assumed they’ve looked at my linkedin/portfolio and know that im a CD (I know how freelance works, I’m usually a hands on). Or do I not make any assumptions? They asked for my rate so I’m curious if they’re going to be taken aback since it’s at the cd level.

The other reason I want to clarify is because I’m tired of partnering with people who aren’t at my level and reporting into people who are.

Mid-level associate at a mid-size regional insurance defense firm practicing coverage litigation. Salary is capped b/c my firm only does I.D./coverage and has no direct-hire comm clients. Second round of interviews with a comm lit boutique where I would be the only associate with 5 partners. Other than partner track, salary/benefits, and switching from coverage to general comm lit, what qualities of the move should I be thinking about as I weigh my options? I've never worked at another firm.
