Would you take an interview somewhere where the role offers $20K below your bottom line? What are they chances I could get them there if I get the job?

Money says a lot. Even if you get this job, you’d find it underwhelming. Don’t sacrifice .

I wouldn’t. It’s a good indicator of how the agency may approach general budgets and processes, as well as tougher to get a raise in the future.

I don’t think $20k is that much of a difference. If they like you and the role has been open for a while there is room to negotiate. I would at least take the interview.

No. Or said another way, I’d tell the recruiter that we are close to $20K apart in terms of comp and you don’t want to waste their time - and see what they say.

I’d only consider it if the perks were outstanding; WFH, generous vacation policy and parental leave policy.

Below your bottom line bottom line? Or the MSRP on your CV? Bottom line bottom line depends how desperate you are or how immediately you need money. MSRP on your cv? They just called BS on your salary demands

Id take a paycut for the right shop that would boost my career such as w+k.

Man that’s a huge price drop...
