Hi, I’m an Engineer + Masters in Management (from the US) and 2 years of Consulting work experience from the US. And 5 years of total work experience. I want to know the range or a ball park please because I’ve moved back from the US and I’m really unsure about the pay scale here. I quoted a range of 25-30 LPA (which is a purchasing power equivalent of my US salary here) but they said it was way above their budget and won’t be able to proceed with it and asked me to rethink and get back with my lowest number possible to see if it’s even possible to proceed. Can you help me with a realistic range and not a lowball (because I have financial obligations). Role is client facing, strategy related & part of their advisory group.

P.S - please don’t be mean I’m just new to the consulting market here!

Hi everyone, this might have been asked before, but can anyone help with a trustworthy, affordable shipping service for sending boxes from Washington DC to Mumbai? I won't be transporting valuables - just clothes, shoes, etc so not worried about breakage I just need it to be delivered at some point lol. I'm also not keen on receiving it soon so ocean shipping works too - but not like 6 months later.

I will have about 2 suitcases worth of stuff at best - so I'm thinking 2 50 lbs boxes (or lesser). I cannot buy and carry any more suitcases on the flight because I'm travelling elsewhere, so that's not an option.

Has anyone tried reselling their Smartrip card which has Smartrip benefits amount on any marketplace platform? I have a significant amount in it that I won’t be needing anymore because I’m moving away and the benefits aren’t eligible for a refund due to IRS regulations. Any advice would be appreciated!
