As you reach this pivotal phase, consider these strategic recommendations when presented with a job offer:

  1. Pursue Multiple Offers: Opt for multiple offers, strategically amplifying your negotiating power by leveraging competing opportunities.
  2. Compare the pay — Gauge your offer against the industry standards at the organization by utilizing platforms like Glassdoor and levels.fyi. This will provide you with insights about the pay for the level you are being hired for.
  3. Discuss with recruiter: Allocate time to thoroughly review the offer, initiating discussions with the recruiter. Delve into discussions concerning fundamental aspects such as base salary, potential bonuses, stock options, relocation benefits, and other relevant perks.

With each strategic move, you pave the way for a rewarding career ahead. Your destination is within reach — step confidently toward it.
