I’ve been interviewing with a medium sized firm and recently received a job offer. I originally interviewed for an Associate role, but they decided to bring me on as a Senior Associate.
The offer came in at the top of the Associate comp range they had previously given me. Since the title is now Senior Associate, I’m wondering whether it would be reasonable to negotiate higher, assuming the responsibilities are also higher.
I already asked for clarification on the difference between the Associate and Senior Associate roles, but I haven’t received a response yet.
How would you navigate this? This is my first time moving companies, so I’m trying to handle it professionally and not overplay my hand.
Would really appreciate any advice. TIA!
