Full Disclaimer. This post isnt actually for me is for my gf, I'm a Hardware Developer, shes a mobile developer but doesnt didnt know about HN until today. Context: She works at an offshore software company leading a mobile app pet/animal industry related, developed as a internal project. She has 2 years of mobile development experience and 1 year of Flutter experience (and all shennaingans). This is her first job and she makes 55k (not the real number, but to later compare to the offer). She likes mobile development and she would like her next job to be a step up in seniority and pay raise, also tittled Mobile Developer, as she officially is full stack developer now. She got an offer from a bank for 75k. But its doing visual programming, she has a friend who works there, theres a lot of opportunity to grow, pay is better, etc. She has 1 year payraise overdue, and they will probably just offer to raise her current salary to 66k. 1) How would you guys approach this so you can get hopefully matching offer? she rather stay, but she would like to maximize the opportunity of the job offer
