The dilemma continues!! ๐Ÿคฏ๐Ÿคฏ๐Ÿคฏ๐Ÿคฏ๐Ÿคฏ๐Ÿคฏ๐Ÿคฏ๐Ÿคฏ๐Ÿคฏ๐Ÿคฏ

The Saga continues.... ๐Ÿฟ ๐Ÿ‘€ย 

let me just take this moment to thank you all, this is the best tool I've been lucky enough to find, you're all legends ๐Ÿซก โ™ฅ๏ธย 

So I got through to the third round today with a PaaS tech recruitment company that's awesome, and it's literally a fantastic move into an AE role ... ย 

I had decided that if this fails I will focus on what I really want to do, which is help the world by selling some kind of SaaS product relating to carbon reduction or sustainability tech solution... I would get so much satisfaction out of this and doubt I would leave the industry ... so I would go out and find the company's I want to work at etc and start over with my search.ย 

As soon as I ended the meeting, I checked my inbox and BAM ๐Ÿ’ฅ there was the invite to a sick company that I love (all beit small company) asking me to interview for SDR .....

now I have to do that one and try to get two offers Ofcourse.

but the real question is? If I get both, which route do I take?ย 

if I take the AE role, I may be able to move into the climate space as an AE after a couple years....ย 

if I take the SDR, I could move up inside that company (hopefully) but obviously have a harder time at the beginningย 

what would Jesus do?????

This isnโ€™t worth thinking about until you have both offers in hand.ย

I am thinking about making similar moves and have been considering taking a pay cut/moving down a peg to go to a company with a mission I can get behind.ย 

At the end of the day it is up to you, but also consider- would it still pay the bills, would you be satisfied in your work, and does the company have a not-shitty culture.

Also, for those of you who are wondering, the mission I can get behind is not sustainability. It's raising awareness and exposure of TikTok dances for elder malenials. I will link out to my gofundme in my bio.ย

Can you tell the company which wants you as an SDR that you have an AE offer and you would be interested in them if there was an AE opportunity?

Hi bb, +1 to the queen, in addition, do what you see yourself happy in. Financially & personally. sounds like the SDR move. You may be able to counter offer that SDR offer with the other offers for a more favorable pay/position. As well, be transparent w them about ur interview process and try to get a rush on the interviews so you can make the best decision for yourself

I would tell the second company that you are looking for AE roles are are currently interviewing for AE roles and see if they would consider you for that.ย 

Also, I would take the AE role STILL!.ย 

Getting to AE is really hard. if you can get that title you will be in a really solid spot.ย 

If you take the AE role, and then after 1 year go back to the other company and ask about an AE roles there, it could work out.ย

Once you have both offers in hand. Do the one that you will enjoy the most, that way it isnโ€™t a drain going to work every day.

get an offer from both first and then approach this question. Having hard numbers for pay in front of you will absolutely impact this answer
