You need to paint yourself as a miracle worker. "Normally to create a model that quickly it would take X time. But I can have it ready for you in Y time."
Make sure Y time is the pace that YOU want to work at. X time is not how long it would truly take you.

Nice

Just found out that end of the year I will be promoted from analyst directly to VP and since it’s such a large jump I’ll be the lowest paid VP in asset management at only $135k TC. Should I stay it out and wait for TC to align or take the promotion and jump ship bc I will likely get paid more elsewhere given how recruiters/other companies eat up hiring recently promoted ppl from other firms?
