One of the main questions a recruiter asks is your salary expectations.

Since recruiters are taking a percentage of what’s on the table - shouldn’t we be asking what their take home/cut is?

Why? You're not paying it.

Just assume they’re making about 20% of what your salary will be.

I mean, they are providing a service, not doing charity work. It's not coming out of your pocket, so it has zero impact on you. It's none of your business.

That's not how it works, at least in my experience. Your budget for recruiting is separate from your salary budget, which is also bound by your company's salary bands. You can't shuffle funds from one bucket to the other.

Who cares? As long you get what you want...

As far as not coming out of your pocket is that actually true? Or is there room for you to get a bigger bump if they are not paying $20k to a recruiter.

I am a registered sales assistant which means I have my series 7. I also have the 63 and my Life & Health license. I was a financial advisor but the role is commission only so I decided to take a role as an assistant for some time to learn etc. I really like my role, but I only make 32k a year and after taxes I only take home about 25k. I have a gut feeling that I’m not being paid market value but it’s tough to find comparable salaries. Do you think $15.38/hr is a fair wage in this case?

Hi fishes, what are the chances of Pwc AC bangalore rescinding an offer given the current market condition?
