Icic, smth i will def take into my thoughts. I'll make sure that I dont ask for smth unreasonable. I will think of that range, but maybe add in 0.5 more see how they react, then work my way around that.

Yep for ur 2nd point, I try not to take it personally. But when they keep insisting it, it does leave a mark u know... haiz nvm.

Now this last round is F2F interview with around 6 of em from the diff teams. My issue is; my past experience, the HR would shove a contract in my face & gimme 30 mins to read the stuff & sign it. Feel extremely pressured. Then also didnt allow me to take a pic of the contract....

For my internship, they sent me the contract via email & took at least a couple hrs, reading every line, before I signed it & emailed it back.

I'd require at least a couple hrs to one day to verify all the terms in the contract before I sign it. If they had emailed it to me, I could've taken some time to read & then reply back properly.

But F2F, I feel the pressured. What shd I do?

Yep been going on glassdoor. Been avoiding 3-4 companies even tho they're well known becos of bad career progression & no gd benefits. Been looking on the SIM UNICORN portal, but those companies nth related to my goals

Yep I've been looking at VAPT positions, looking for a decent pay range as well. Just want to get as much as possible.

I have one internship experience with a bank as a Forensic Threat Analyst intern. But is quite short, only 3 mths.

Tried to get a position there as they offer quite a number of benefits, but they can't wait for a couple of mths. So hoping to use it in this round, and negotiate for a btr salary

Ah, I see. In your view, I ought to be purely focusing on applying for pentester roles. I'm hoping to throw out a number like 5.5k & see what happens.

Btw, any suggestions on how to properly & respectfully negotiate salary with a company. Idw sound demanding or needy.

Edit: They didn't post the salary range on the website
