Bring relevant statistics to support your ask. Find reputable sources for the data you use.

What statistics warrant a sign on bonus? Typical sign on bonuses or higher market salary figures?

My concern is if I interview and fail, I will be barred from interviewing from another role for 6 to 12 months. Should I give it a shot or save my chance for something more realistic (e.g. L6)?
