Need advice re: full time position (salary compensation)
Hi;
I just got an interview and would like a little input into a range of salary I should ask for. The HR lady who called me was very nice and the preliminary research done on the company tells me that this will be a decent place to work. However, even on the phone she asked me what I was expected for a salary and this was kind of alarming to me. According to the job ad, this is what I'll be doing:
Private Investment Company is seeking a high energy Assistant to the VP of Finance, this individual will be handling a variety of tasks day to day including
*Assisting with new mortgage financing leads
*underwriting new deals
*verifying information
*reviewing appraisals
*networking with brokers to produce new mortgage lending business.
*administering current mortgages
*processing new lead techniques
*advertising mortgages for sale and, mortgage lending opportunities.
Ideal Candidates will:
*Hold a degree in finance
*Have minimum 1 year experience with real-estate, and mortgages.
*Posses a great attitude and positive outlook
*Be able to work well under stress
Thanks!!

Important to tack on the penny then in any negotiation if you can always say "Fine! Take your damn penny but I'm keping the rest!" makes you look like the good guy.
Jokes.
do you all think this opportunity (while relatively low paying but good for when I finish my last few classes next semester) can be parlayed into bigger and better things? I am trying to break into equity research and I think this job may eventually give me the skills to carve out a little niche for myself (real estate). What say you?
No, this will not lead to equity research. This is an assistant position, think secretary + lead finder. You won't be doing any modeling and little to no research. It may lead to being a RE broker but nothing in ER.
that's what I figured but I think I convinced myself that this was a good opp. Kind of debating whether I should even go tommorow. I'm not going to waste my time (I already did for 8 months) in a role that doesn't give me the skills I need to be successful, although it is summer and a job is needed for: A) personal satisfaction/money B)no gaps in resume
Ahh, tough choices? Anyone have any further comments?
The brief bullet point that says "underwriting deals" sounds like you will get some exposure. However, its treated as an assistant position, which is really iffy. Honestly though, if you dont have anything else lined up, then you should atleast look into what the compensation would be.
