ISO guidance: I have an offer for an Executive Recruiter + BDM role (Engineering, construction, architecture, real estate) 100k Base, 225k OTE. I'm also nearing the final interviews with a Series B Startup Real Estate SaaS company as well: AE role, 65k base, 250k OTE. I'm torn as I've wanted to get back into tech sales for a while, but the offer for the Recruiting role speaks volumes. What pertinent variables would you be looking for given the odd times in the world & market? Thanks in advance!

I would also choose the recruiter position. That sounds like a much better offer. Best of luck to you.

What’s the real estate startup?! Sounds interesting. Depends on where you want to be long term

Honestly, I can see myself growing with both organizations.

I'd choose the recruiter option. No questions asked. Unless you're really passionate about tech!

Thanks for sharing. I’m curious as to what grounds you’d base that preference on, if you don’t mind me asking

I am considering an offer for an AE role (UK-LDN) where the base is £42k & OTE is £70k. The Regional GM has verbally promised to move it up to £50k base if I perform well during the probationary period, but I can’t have it in writing on the contract. I’ve tried to counter offer but they said I’m currently maxing the salary band (L4). This role is exciting as I’d be the first UK employee, doing the full sales cycle & more but I had the same base and ote as an SDR. Is it too low? Do I take it?

Currently interviewing for a position at UKG. Any one have feedback good or bad on the company?

They’ve tried recruiting internally but can’t even get anyone past the first round. I feel like rejecting on principle! Thoughts?
