Is it okay to use multiple recruiters at once? What makes a recruiter stand out compared to others?

Absolutely use more than one. Most of them are time wasters, but generally a recruiter that is engaged and is actually bringing opportunities to the table is one that I would consider “good.” Particularly when they’re candid in providing less than ideal opportunities and say something like “look if you find something through someone else or on your own that’s amazing. I just hope you’ll refer some friends my way!”

Is this reasonable or am I missing something?

I started maxing my 401k from year 1 and I hope to have $5 million or more by the time I retire around 60. Wouldn’t it make sense to put all of my yearly $19,500 401k contribution to ROTH 401k instead of traditional 401k?

My reasoning is that I would pay 35% tax now and my remaining 65% would grow tax-free in ROTH 401k…. versus traditional 401k where I deposit 100% but every distribution will be taxed 35% assuming I make a lot in retirement.

So, I'm happy at my current job and have been there about 18 months. Our pay is probably 15% below market (AmLaw 100) but so are our billable requirements. An interview for another firm kind of fell into my lap, and I'm debating whether to take it just for the sake of seeing what market really is. Is there something shady about interviewing somewhere you're not totally committed to accepting an offer from?
