Just received an offer for my dream company and role but it’s in SF and I’m in New York. I don’t want to leave New York yet as I moved here not too long ago and love the city. Any advice?

Oooh fair enough - have you asked them what the latest date you can start would be? I would tell them you’re on a project and you want to see it through in good faith.

Does the company have a NYC presence? If so, I’m in a similar boat — with a large tech. company in Mountain View. The team I’m offered with is solely in Bay Area, so I’ve been candid that I would prefer to stay in NYC and have been able to leverage my interview experience / case, etc. to pursue a different role in NYC.

Second question is: is it a level-up in your career or future prospects? 15% is pretty marginal salary-wise, especially for a move to a higher COLA.

SF housing has actually gotten more expensive than Manhattan. Everything else is pretty similar

I’m reviewing my resume getting ready to start my job search and have a question for recruiters, hiring managers. I’m looking for a role brand-side not agency side.

My past roles have been such that I do a lot of marketing projects, tasks etc. but I’m not a specialist. I’m worried if I use this terminology I won’t even be considered for a role. Thank you
