PLS HELP ASAP!
I have an interview today where they want me to test if I'm a culture fit by hiring me as an intern for an already hired junior AD ... I already have 2 agency internships, fully produced client work, pitch experience, and ECDs at top ad agency saying I'm working at a mid level. How do I tell this agency I'm interviewing at that I'm happy to be tested, but making freelancer $, not intern? What's usual freelancer rates for a junior?
Thank you!

They’re taking advantage of you. Especially when your partner, who’s supposed to be your equal, is full-time making a salary.

Hi All,

I have 4 yrs of exp as full stack developer and my current CTC is 15 lpa and notice period is of 3 months. I got an offer from another firm for 24lpa but they have shared the offer letter of DOJ after 2 months and asked me to negotiate my notice period or look for buyout. What should I do in this case? Should I connect with my current hr to negotiate? Cause I tried convincing the new hr to share the offer letter of DOJ after 3 months but she is not in the favour of that.

Keep getting approached by rival firms for ~50% salary increases in London. Raised it with my company and got a 5% raise. Don’t want to sound ungrateful but doesn’t scratch the surface of the underpayment of where I am, it’s well below market rates. Manager hinted at getting an offer which they could counter could help but, I can’t see them matching 45-55% I could get elsewhere. Like the work and culture here and salary isn’t everything, but unsure how to approach this. 26 YO with 2.5YOE.

Please comment your YOE, Tech Stack and Service line.

I'm currently at 38L(Fixed) working with Deloitte USI, cleared all the rounds with EYGDS. I am asking for 30% hike only which will be 49.5L(Fixed) and that too they are saying out of budget. This is strange!!!
