Hiring process
Hi guys(Mainly HRs), Recently I applied to one SaaS company for the position-Solution Engineer/Implementation engineer, I had 2 rounds and was done with both the rounds. As I was expecting results, I got this mail from the...
I interviewed for a company called tooljet, cleared all the rounds.
During the negotiation with HR, in the later stages of negotiation I had asked few questions like
1st call was regarding my expectations ( she said she will give me 30-35% increment on previous) 2nd call was about her offer(gave me 23%) 3rd call was regarding all these questions 4th call I accepted asked her to defer it by a week 5th call she said no, saying you asked a lot of questions, we want someone who can focus on the growth of our startup and not worry about these things. I never got a chance to negotiate, she never accepted or even bothered to listen to any of my requests. I asked her to increase it by 30% and she didn't even bother to listen and refused it. Her entire attitude was , take it or leave it. She said she can't negotiate each and every day,and I barely got a chance to even negotiate. Did I say anything wrong or is the HR stupid?
Very red flag sounding startup. You cannot use seeing startup as an excuse for everything
I think you just dodged a big one
HR is being too cruel or could be intern to HR something and might be her first job. Directly talk with founders and get esops set straight + holidays etc. If they are well funded get things as they are
Also research more on the HR check her linkedin also the company might be on hiring freeze. If they don’t losten play a game and accept the offer then reject it saying you got better offer if they come back they will give you what you deserve or can just move on
Major Red Flag, avoid this ‘startup’ at all costs
Good riddance
You my friend seemed to have dodged a bullet, Can you tell more about the role they were hiring for... Did it involve dealing with clients ? I'm seeing most roles these days have some or the other variable payment component linked to deals/projects being through or not... Irrespective of the amount of efforts involved.

I'll go first. I got a call for an APM role from one of the companies which did sound pretty sketchy and the recruiter was started bullying me into answering questions, when I asked to know more about the role. The recruiter was extremel...

What is a reasonable ask while negotiating with startups?
Should I ask for a match or hike of X% over my TC/annum (52lk Base + 8lk Bonus + Rs30lk RSUs), or should I negotiate only over the Cash (Base + Bonus) component?
A startup I...
