Ugh references are the worst. Most don’t let you use family. And I don’t trust people to not try and sabotage me. Had it happen once, bad taste in my mouth. Shouldn’t my resume tell you that I can do a job well. I’m an AB honor roll student, I got myself through college with a good gdp. And held down jobs for a long time.

I’ve been loving the Science of Reading podcast, anyone else listened to it?

I’m not too familiar with the NYC market, pls help. Interviewing for a senior copywriter role at a healthcare agency. Was told the avg salary for the role is 85-90. Seems low, right? If we get to an offer stage, what should I be shooting for? 6 years experience.

Hi Fishes,

One more scenario when dealing with counter offer with holding offer for X.

Two company A&B gave more or less package X+3 Lakh.

Can we still negotiate with company A Or B to get top up from X+3 to make a clear decision to choose over one other.

Is this recommended approach?
Or
how do tackle this situation?

Pour in your ideas which will help all.

Thanks,
