I am moving to HC! But I have been asked to submit few details that will help in creating my packet. Some of these details include Salary expectations, name of Googlers who can give references internally and reasons to leave previous companies.

The salary I was drawing currently is above market standards. And the feedback that I had initially received during the interviewas mixed followed by Positive in the later stages.

Will it be safe to give an expected num based on my base at this stage?

Why is everyone so hard pressed about “how to get out of” X event? Maybe I’m a little old school but why are the options of “Just RSVP no” or “pretend to have something else” or “just don’t show up” not the defaults?

I'm in a good position now but I have a chance to get out of what I'm doing to something completely different.. I think it will be less stress and less client contact. Making 106k plus discretionary bonus right now. Would it make sense to apply for something that's more specific but might have less room for growth but will get to the salary I want? Let's say 115k base salary.

Pretty certain I will be fired or asked to quit if I can’t pass a licensing exam in a few weeks as it’s my final try.
