Last year I took a few interviews after 2 busy seasonsand got an offer for 80k+bonus in fund accounting, ended up not taking it but overall most jobs were around 80-85. The recruiters said there wouldn’t be much salary increase and I would be at the same range, but now I have recruiters saying 95-100k base for similar roles and my experience as a senior 2. Question is the recruiters sort of said this wouldn’t happen, was that just them trying to get me to take the job? Or are these high offers

A recruiter is *for the most part* going to have their best interests in mind, not yours. Telling you that you won't find anything above what they're offering is a common strategy to try to get you to accept the job offer....

Are we talking Hedge Fund services or private equity ?
I would stay away from mutual funds striking NAV three times a day is no good

I’m so holding my breath for Q4 stock market movements now. Not that I care about my personal portfolio, but I really don’t want to deal with NAV guesstimates like 2018 Q4 again

If they are private equity or private investment companies I’d say higher 90 to 100 is right, prob slightly higher but not by much. Idk about big mutual funds, would assume its lower since the work is less specialized and more procedural

Can’t decide between reporting + technical roles vs corporate accounting roles. Coming out of audit and I like both aspects. Has anyone tried both sides and have any insights? Does one of these have higher salary potential? Does corporate accounting give you a higher chance of reaching a controller position since you’re actually in the GL, whereas technical + reporting will probably have you in a specialized group in larger companies?
