Be prepared to be offered a level lower than what you deserve with a “path to the next level”.

don’t take it...

Second this one. Was told I had to prove myself, that my ability to sell would put me on the path to next level- I held firm and came in at the level I wanted, not the level initially offered

I had a job interview for a role that I really want. The hiring manager scheduled me for an interview and did not show up. Emailed me an hour later stating that he got super busy and couldn’t attend, and would like to reschedule. This is a major red flag, but I can’t help but feel that I am missing out since this role pays 50% over what I currently make. Should I let the recruiter know? What’s your take on this?

Just a reminder that outside our bubble no-one really cares about firm prestige etc.
