Just apply to the reqs and if your experience aligns with what the team is looking for, I'm sure their recruiter will reach out. But I know firm aren't necessarily hiring right now so timing can be bad. Good luck.

I work at a mid tier firm in an audit group of ~20 people. We’ve recently had two seniors and a manager leave, and I just found out another senior with a ton of big jobs is leaving in three weeks. I also just found out I’m being promoted to senior with a raise of 10%. In light of all these departures though, I kind of want to ask for more.... should I? And what % raise is appropriate? Any insight appreciated!
