Recruiter said the role I interviewed with they went with another candidate but asked if I’m interested in another role. The role is interesting should I just say sure? I’m curious why the other one didn’t work out

Sometimes there is a candidate who's a better fit for that role, but they still like you and/or see that you'd fit another open role better. I'd say if the role they proposed is interesting to you and it's a company you really want then why not go for it.

This just happened to me too. I said yes and am now interviewing for a role I find more interesting

I wonder if we’re talking about the same company lol

Yes. I got rejected for one role and was asked to interview for another one. The recruiter was right, I am a better fit for the role I ended up interviewing and accepting the offer for.

Hi Fishes,

My tech is .net application support and yoe is 5. What is the percentage hike that I can expect on the basis of my skill.

I have seen people commenting like your expectation should be YOE * 3 (This is just an example I am referring from another post and this has been not told to me)

As per the above logic, what should be my expectations as per the current market standard. Any suggestions will be helpful

TIA
