Recruiter Question? Need advice

Was asked this by a recruiter:


Hey - if you had a scale and on the far left was a trail blazing hunting role with big upside. And on the right was more a large cap tech with a higher base but more systematic commercial biz where realistically upside is somewhat capped but itโ€™s more certain, safety net, company growing high single to double digits, where would you rate yourself on the scale with what you want to do next?


Thoughts???

What do you mean by somewhat capped. What a trick.

One thing's for sure - the Recruiter is biased towards the latter. I mean, just look at the descriptions once. It's:

trailblazing hunting v/sย

this seems like a loaded question and something where they want you to pick the "trailblazing hunting role".ย 

Was this the first message from them? or have you been talking for a while.ย 

In my experience, 3rd party recruiters have never been helpful if they reach out cold to you.ย
