i have recently received a job offer from a company outside my local area. this is my first offer since graduating a couple of weeks ago. i’m quite happy except:
-
the salary offered seems low when i compare it to my peers that have also recently been offered jobs. Is it fair to think I might get a salary that is competitive to that of my peers with similar performance while in school?
-
no relocation assistance is being offered. this company travelled to my school’s recruitment week to fill the open position. from what i can tell, this company has always hired locally and relocation is something they haven’t had to face before. i have not heard of a company recruiting outside their local area not offering relcoation assistance. is this normal? don’t most companies that travel to recruit offer relocation?
i am truly grateful for the offer but i don’t want to feel the equivalent of buyer’s remorse.
any thoughts would be appreciated. thanks
