Interviewed for a senior position at a company and was told they like me but I was better suited for junior role. If interested they could give me an offer letter right away. Junior role paid significantly less so I countered that if they can give me 10k more I’ll happily take the role. Should I have accepted first then negotiated once offer letter was in hand?

Recently got called for an interview for strategy/ operations role by a Faang company. I had my first screening call with the hiring manager, mostly all behavioral questions so hard to tell the result. The one area I felt I could probably brush up on is program management as my current industry is Pharma and tech industries are different. So any advice on program management interview guidance would be helpful. I have 18 yoe but still quite stressed about it.

I am on mat leave and wanted to cut my leave for financial needs. I got an offer outside my company which offers me almost 20k more, but not sure if I really enjoy the work like I do with my current. Should I still give my company a resignation notice or I can keep it till the end of my leave which is almost after 8 months? Thinking if i don't like the job I can go back? Also, do you think if i tell my company, will they try to match the reverse offer ?

Got an interview as a marine superintendent at the port of NY/NJ - their beginning salary isn’t as great as I thought it would be - 60K but they told me after 6 months of employment we get 12K bonuses divided over 12 months. So salary would be $72K. I asked someone who works there and they told me bonuses depends on how the terminal is operating, sometimes its less. Are they being misleading with the salary ? How can I get them to guarantee the bonuses after 6 months of employment ?

Hello All, Office Sup. for a major hospital, w/ 15 years experience. I have lots of experience in every position in the office, especially in training. I recently applied for an EPIC trainer position within the company and according to Glassdoor the average pay is about 23k more than what I currently make.

How can I know I'm getting the best salary and not just settling at the low end of the range?
