I had a headhunter tell me she had all these opportunities it was a great time to be job hunting, gave me names of two agencies she would set up meetings with and to email her Monday... it’s been two months, never heard from her again

This used to send me lol. Just feels like wasted time on both ends.

Sorry that happened to you. The right opportunity will come along 🤟🏻

I got offered a job, then the CD ghosted me for two years. Good times.

Omg the worst! “We want to offer; the letter will arrive when the cicadas erupt from the soil in, say, a decade 😂”

Researching the job mkt & pay for nursing: It is so easy to set up a first interview esp. as a nurse. Set up a zoom meeting, in the zoom meeting ask abt job details and ask for the salary range. They will give it to you, and in my case it was the same range for both of the companies. (Hospice oncall nurse here👋). Then you fit in somewhere on that continuum based on education & experience—that where the negotiation comes in—they will make a case to place you as low as possible on the scale.

How do you calculate your years of experience? Curious-if I include roles outside of my current dept I have 8. If only counting production, 3. How does that impact your salary negotiations?

Do you get a bonus? How much? Do you count it in your salary when posting here?

180 base, 50 bonus, plus 50-75k profit sharing and 50k equity a year.

Still feel underpaid on initial base salary :/
