Why is that leadership think its so important to put up “urgent” deadlines, when they pretty much sit on the candidates I forward to them for close to a week?? Are they worried I won't do my job well if there's sense of unnecessary urgency induced? I'm so sick of not hearing back from them, which in turn hurts my ability to get back to the candidates who are eagerly waiting. Am I the only with dealing with this nonsense?

I've figured the deadlines are just performative. It's a way to keep pressure high and show activity, even when there’s no real rush behind the scenes. Unfortunately, it puts recruiters in an awkward spot and we get stuck waiting on decisions, delaying responses to candidates who deserve better communication. You’re definitely not alone. Voicing it might help push for a more transparent process? It didn't help me but maybe your leaders are more receptive?

I think a lot of people are just wired to deal with deadlines and over time assigning deadlines has worked for them. I assume the leadership you're talking about would have a lot of things on their plate. So even if you adhere to the deadlines, other things may get in the way on their end.

good point

Deadlines are a necessity. Labeling everyone with urgent or high priority isn’t. It gets overused a lot, true. It should come down to a conversation about what the timelines look like.

yesss everything labeled as urgent makes it lose its meaning and effectiveness

nope, lots of my leaders will do this too. I think they overestimate the amount of time they have available, and are still anxious to get the process moving.

Hi everyone!
I have interviews coming up at BD in Maryland and, coming from the hospital world, I have no clue what salary to ask for. The position is a scientist/quality role for microbiology research and development. For context, I have 4 years of experience in a hospital blood bank and am a certified Medical Laboratory Technologist. I was thinking in the 65-70k range, but the recruiter made it seem like that was easily attainable so I’m worried I’m asking too low. Would 75-80k be do-able?

1YOE medical device NPI Lead looking for salary perspective

Mechanical engineering grad, joined a medical device startup that I had done co-ops at. 8mo into full-time, pivoted from engineering into more of an operations role doing new product introduction (NPI), now with 3 direct reports.
