Recruiters, can you please give us freelancers the avg range for jr, mid level, and sr level day rates in your city?
My made-up example:
New York
Jr $500-700
Mid $700-$900
Sr $900-$1500

Thank you.

Your sample is spot on but I’d lower your lowest and raise your highest for the small percentile of top and low tier people. I work for a big, good agency and we rarely pay over $1800. Juniors right out of school we’ll do about $300 a day but not for too long before deciding if we’ll hire them.

Talent level and body of work plays into how much you can command on your dayrate. Be honest with yourself on your worth.. understand there are a lot of genuinely high level, accomplished freelancers out there with amazing books.

Similar rates for SF but also agree with TR1. Rate/budget depends on the role you are filling.

Even if EY matches my salary, and promote me to Manager, I will be an EY Manager with a Deloitte SC salary, and probably won't be able to go to D in the future. What do you think?

I decided to move on from my job of 7 years, I had no days off, It was getting overwhelmed, I just wanted to spend quality family time, so I applied at another place and I was hired on the spot, so my old employer offered me what I wanted and I decided to stay, so my question is ….. how in a professional way do I tell my new employer that I not coming to work with them. I’m supposed to start by the end of this month.

I have a looming sense of self hatred. I take medication I workout and do all the things to feel good, but it’s just stuck there. Constantly thinking I’m trash, in a bad person, etc. Feeling guilty for things idek if I should feel guilty about. This is a privileged problem and I know it’s minuscule to compared to the actual struggles of so many people in the US and abroad. Just wondering if anyone has felt this as well and if so, how do you get rid of that self hatred?
