If they ask, don’t give them a range. They’ll pick the lower number. Just say 55. They’ll say 50. Then you all go get drunk, as is tradition.

45-55

Ehhhh 55 seems pretty high for Chicago. Most people I know got 40-43ish as juniors.

50K but ask for 60

Ask for 65 if you have awards and 55 if you don’t

In Chicago, mid-sized agency.

👆🏼 that’s the range for Chicago btw

Yeah I’d ask for 50!

NYC is 45-50K usually, up to 55 in some cases

Go with SAD2’s advice. Could be a good new partnership as well.
