What's the best way to politely indicate that you'd accept an income on the higher end of a tier but not lower? I don't want to waste time interviewing if the salary is below a certain point. Thanks!

Give them your range with the floor being the absolute lowest you’d accept. But be prepared to justify it against the essential and preferred requirements of the role.

Anchor your range slightly higher than what you’d accept (ie mention your range is $85k-$95k, but in reality, you would accept $80k).

Also, it’s important to layer into your conversations that you are actively considering multiple positions. It’s a fine line to keep the potential new employer feeling you are still very keen on the position, but also making them understand they are not your only option.

I plan on applying to accounting PhD programs later this year and every program requires letters of recommendation.

Does anyone have any advice on how to go about it?

Is the opportunity with BCG really so far beyond what I have already with S&? Is dropping a better look than interviewing and doing terribly?

Hi all, my current title is Motion Graphics Designer. I just finished my probation (6 months which is very uncommon).

The department head (my manager's boss) is happy with the work I delivered. How should I prepare for this title review and pay raise negotiation? Currently getting paid 88k. I am expecting 95-100k
