Hi all- I have a total of 13 years of experience in analytics consulting for CPG and Retail clients, I’ve worked at BCG for 3 years in their analytics team at India. I had a question about Canadian salaries , is 230k CAD base a good number to be paid for someone with my experience, or it should be higher - the role is that of a director at an analytics startup, I’ve realized Retailers pay a whole lot less in general and definitely super low in Canada , any thoughts or advice?. much appreciated.

Hey Fishes,

I lied about my relevant experience with TCS HR in order to get a bit more package , my actual relevant experience is 3.6 whereas I told 4.6 yrs..

1 year exp. which is irrelevant for the role I'm being hired for.. I made my mind bcoz this 1 yr irrelevant experience is also from IT company only, so in BGV TCS HR conducts enquiry if I had I just worked there or not right?? , I'm assuming they'll not enquire my roles & responsibility, previous tech stack that I was working on..
