ASAP. Negotiate your start date. It rarely works out perfectly, so better to have lead time.

@OP - it’s a better idea to start early. Even if you just tell them at the top that you can’t start until November. Call it an informational interview if you want. Skype or phone, they don’t need to fly you out today. But yeah - get yourself on the radar now so that when something does open up somewhere you wanna be, November is the perfect start date for both of you.

Plus, a lot of people don’t have much hiring money in Q4 (November-December) so if they already know they like you and want you there this will give them a chance to plan for that budgetary-wise.

@AD1, do you think it’d be a prob at all if I really can’t move to November. Like they won’t try and get me to come earlier?

OP as mentioned before it will likely not work out perfectly. However, working out things leading up to the date and having the option to work with the new hire is ideal. Alternatively, if you wait until the ideal window opens up: the offer could go away, you will likely be pressed to find apartment, roommate, car, etc. All of this takes time, so best to be in front of it.

Hi all!

I’m interviewing with the company although I have offer signed with another (going though background checks, so didn’t wanna stop before knowing 100%). Really love the process and the team, but unless something goes sideways with signed offer won’t be joining them.

Hi everyone, I am 4.9 years experienced , I joined Fractal 3 months ago as a data engineer, but still haven't got any project. Process is so slow that I have received only 4 to 5 project calls.

I have interview lined up with Impetus as for now. Would it be better choice?

How do you strategically answer the question “what is your expected pay range?” when the pay range listed is $20-$40/hr (salaried) and you want to negotiate towards $45/hr?

I feel like I should know the answer, but somehow it feels much different.
