and higher. My freelance day rate in NYC as a new senior was $1000/day. Now I would def ask for more like 12-1500/day. Be ready to come down, sure, but always ask high.

Everyone pays differently. Each agency inChicago. Some $500/day some $800/day. It's important to know if they are putting you on payroll. $700/day paid to you is actually like $450/day if you are aging your own taxes

Depending on your current salary and benefits package, I'd suggest something in the $50 to $60 an hour range. Of course, there a lot of additional expenses you're going to have to cover yourself that are employer paid on full time gigs.

you guys are killing me 🤑. So anywhere between $500-$1500 a day for Sr. Interactive Producer. How about we narrow it down by market. Any Portland 🐠 want to chime in?

Hello Guys,

Fynd but that is too low for me and as per my expereince

They are giving me 9 LPA bcz I quoted that amount when I applied for it long back. at that time I didnt know more about how salary and all calculated and whats the market research

Now after clearing all the rounds when we meet for salary discussion i told him my real desired salary as per experience and market reseach

He told me that I quoted 9 LPA so we can not do more "unless you have any counter offer"

Long story short: last year in Nov 2020 I accept an offer for concentrix but unable to join due to COVID situation and got approval from the reporting manager it was only for a week.
Now recently I got offer for concentrix pune but they are asking to continue with last package which is below the baseline for this process.
When I spoke to the HR he says it's the policy and nothing can be done.
I loved the process but it would be really hard for me with the package.
ANY ADVICE WHAT CAN BE DONE

Amazing how time can change your perspective, because 10 years ago I never thought I’d be here.
