Need some advice -- applied twice to an non profit that I really like and got rejected both times. I think I overshot the level I was coming in at -- like many nonprofits, they only had a few roles available at the time (director level) so I felt it was better to apply than not.

Now there's a manager level role that is probably a better fit -- should I write a 3rd application/cover letter and mention that I applied before? Or should I email recruitment director to "ask about the role" ?

Showing that you’re deeply invested in becoming a part of the team can’t hurt. I’d go ahead and write to the recruitment director letting them know that you’re interested and would like to learn more. From there, it’ll be easier to gauge how to approach the cover letter. Good luck - it’s better on this side

When I moved in-house a year ago as a BigLaw mid-level, I took a 45% pay cut, far more than I was comfortable with (although I was fine with a 20-30% cut).

Now that my year-end review is coming up, how do I ask my company for a significant pay raise (not just a 2-5% inflation-matching raise)?

Their process is so slow that I don't really want to miss out on any chance.What would be a great time to follow up?
