Recruiter from JPMorgan Chase London reached out for a role that aligns pretty well with my skillset & interests. Would a referral help boost my chances in this case?

A referral is only helpful in getting the recruiting team’s attention, so in your case i don’t think so

Can't hurt, but not necessary if the recruiter has already shown interest. Good luck!

If recruiter is already hooking you up, I wouldn't curve them. Guess it depends on who you really think is going to be in your corner throughout the hiring process.

Not necessarily. A referral could only get you as far as getting the attention of the recruiter, but you shouldn't rely on it. Everything else will still be up to you, your skills, and your experiences. I hope everything goes well for you!

Not necessarily. It will only speed up your application process. But your chances of getting hired still depend on your interview performance and resume.

Hi all, I have a question regarding retirement accounts. I am not sure if I should choose a Roth or 401k (company has 4+2% match). Currently 23, base salary is ~100k and investments have brought 45k this year which has me teetering between a 22-24% tax bracket. Wondering what the usual tax bracket is of people retired (around 65yo) as I’m not sure anything would bring in significant income with the exception of investments. In my case would a Roth make sense? Appreciate any answers!!
