Is it a turn off to recruiters to show eagerness to hear back on a decision? It’s been about a week after the interview. I’m an MBA candidate and we all get the same comp package so it’s not like I’ll be shooting myself in the foot for negotiating compensation. But wondering if there’s other implications to consider before reaching out? In this case, will it help instead?

You would fine reaching out. Recruiters would not even be the ones making the final decision. At worst you would just bother them when they were likely to reach out soon

It’s fine to show eagerness but have the EQ to know when you’re being annoying vs when you’re showing care. Completely fine to email a week after to ask for a status update while thanking them for the opportunity :)

So I’m in industry from big 4, and a colleague with same yoe comes from MBB. High paying tech firm. I think I work harder and produce quality content at speed, but they can hold executive conversations that tend to impress senior stakeholders.

Big 4 produces work horses and MBB produces leaders. Also they could be a work horse too since I don’t have full visibility.

Anyone have similar experiences or do I just suck at executive stakeholder management?

I can get 300+ maybe up to 400-450k TC in FAANG but not liking technical stuff anymore.

Do you think aiming for MBB for a Management Consulting[tech domain] role is a stretch given I have no consulting background? What kind of compensation can I expect?
