Who do you get employment references for in PA? Associates, managers, director or partner? Can you request references while interviewing? Recruiter is asking for 3 references.

Recruiter wants references so they can badger those people too. Ignore them - you don’t need to give a recruiter any references

I agree with PwC1. I fell for the trick once and got a earful

How would you avoid giving the reference?

Leave the reference section blank.

What’s the best way to turn down a 2nd interview? During the 1st interview, I learned that the compensation for the role is not within the range that I am looking for and requires 400 more billable hours a year than what I bill now. I’d basically be laterally for my current salary just to bill 400 more hours. I also wasn’t aware that the local office was strictly ID. Firm website advertises lots of practice areas. Any advice? TIA!
