If I have between 4-6 years of media buying experience and am also doing paid search, I am Google Certified. What should my salary be? With so much remote work happening right now should we be still allowing employers to use the excuse of average salary for your location?

Cost of living for your area would still be a factor I would think. Why would it not be? Would it instead be cost of living of company location? That doesn't make sense. Would it be national average? Sure, but then someone in NYC walks in the door (Zoom) and they want more because their area costs more, and that makes sense, and of course the flip side is those living in cheap areas companies want to save money. That appeal is still there.

As for what you're worth, I'd do $75 no problem for your experience, up to $85 if we just had to have you.

Thank you for your feedback. Do you mind me asking what state or DMA you are located? I’m not making anywhere close to that right now.

Does anyone have a similar experience? I interviewed with recruiters from two of "Big 4".

I wonder why the partners even not bothered to interview me. If it matters, I am a CPA with 3 years non-PA experience and applied for experienced associate positions. I appreciate any insights.
