Looking to get more aggressive about networking and trying to lateral into a bank. Not limiting myself geographically, although dc-metro/Baltimore would be ideal. Anyone out there that can help review my background and resume for some pointers on how to go about it?

Have been reading through M&I and WSO for about a year now (attempt at a bare minimum showing of engagement/background knowledge).

I am a 5 year experienced developer and am applying for position as a developer in bank. I have cleared the assignment, interview and soft skills.

That feels bit weird and I feel they would talk me on a low salary because I am “not so experienced”. I did interview at another company earlier and they refused to pay the salary I asked for because I wasn’t senior enough. Any tips ?

How do I ask an recruiter for either an earlier interview time or faster processing. I’m currently in the process of recruiting for a few consulting firms (1 Big4, 2 Big3). I received an offer already and am deep in the process for one of the other firms. However, the firm I really am interested to work in has me scheduled for a interview basically when my other 2 offers (if I get the second one) would explode. How should I go about this?
