experienced hire in big 4 advisory

Hi everyone,
I'm currently finishing up my MBA and am being recruited by Big 4 Advisory groups for a senior position in Washington, DC. I have already interviewed and expect at least one offer. My questions is: what is a typical offer for someone with 4.5 years of industry experience (software developer/analyst) and an MBA? Where would I fit in within the senior position spectrum? I currently make a little over $80k/year and from the discussions on this board it sounds like an offer for someone like me would not be much higher. Thanks.

Where did you do your MBA? I just turned 23 and was made an offer for a Senior Consultant position in Capital Markets and Banking Advisory and my offer was 100K. I don't have an MBA but I do have a top MFE. Given that you have almost 5 years experience, you should be getting more than me. I would aim for 110-120K.

Thanks for the reply, everythingsucks.

My MBA is from George Washington University, which while not a top program has good recognition within DC. In part of the interview process the HR person asked for details on my current salary which I provided. I'm wondering if that was a mistake on my part. My current salary is comparatively low because it is government. Oh well I guess I'll just have to wait and see what the offers are.
