What do you want to be paid? That’s the important question. Use the link above, or this one (http://www.mtscastlerock.com/calc/index.php) which can brake down payment by hour/day/month and figure out your rates.

Your retainer should be your overhead (any software you need for the client) then take a vig of the spend (normally around 8% unless you have massive clients already). Do a minimum of 25k/channel/month and only work with clients who have at least series A fundraising.

I'm a recent grad who accepted an entry-level full-time job offer with Capital One.

General question, and I suspect the answer is no. Are there any employment or exec comp-related jobs in the entertainment industry? Or, are there any law firms purely focused on entertainment that have a comp/employment/benefits group? I’m at a large firm with a lot of high profile artists, but I’d like to narrow my practice down to entertainment.

Offering advice to job seekers who go around recruiters and message hiring teams, execs, etc. You are putting the Recruiters job in danger. If a Recruiter declines you or doesn’t choose to reach out, it is because the hiring team declined you, or you don’t have the experience. You will most likely not be considered for future roles because of this. When I see people giving advice to reach outside the Recruiter, it’s bad advice. Very rare is this a good idea.
