If you're not excited about a new role, then don't take it. You will hate work and be looking for a new role in 6 months. Just reject it and keep looking.

I feel overqualified for this associate role but I've been looking for an exit (3 years into consulting, straight out of UG).... any advice for things I should consider with a career change?

Did you negotiate the offer yet?

yep - tried to negotiate but were unwilling to budge. Said they wanted parity across the board even for those with 6+ years experience.

Hello, does anyone work as an auto underwriter for insurance? I recently got accepted for an internal job position and was offered $50k. I’m currently a claim processor making $20/hour so the offer is more than what i’m making but is low in comparison to the average salary for an auto underwriter in AZ (which is around $58k). I believe because the company knows how much i’m making they lowballed me. Any tips on how to navigate the salary negotiation and can u share ur salary ?
