SF & NYC 800/day (8hr days) 2-4 years experience. I’ve kept the same rate for those years

Varies widely. NYC/LA, $350/day to $1500. For 5 years experience as an editor doing broadcast or major web ads I’d say $650 is the bottom of what you should charge.

I received a job offer from company A and am currently negotiating salary. I have an interview with company B next week and know that they offer a higher base pay. There’s no guarantee that I will be offered a job at company B but my gut is telling me that company B would be a better fit for me. Should I accept the offer from company A, continue interview process with company B and then rescind my offer with company A if company B offers me a job? Will I be burning bridges?
