I’m very ambitious so the answer is easy for me. You can usually tell by someone’s resume too.

Are you ambitious? Do you see yourself coasting soon in your career or just working a 9-5 that’s well compensated or are you looking to build a significant brand and career?

I have been talking to a recruiter for a little over a month about a position. I let her know out the gate that I really wasn’t looking to change jobs, but she just kept wanting to continuing the conversation. I didn’t have 2 interviews with the hiring coming and they know that I am not really looking to make a switch. They are now working on an offer letter and I know they’re going to offer me more money. I’m having my annual review this week. Any advice on how to handle a) job offer b) review?
