Hey everyone! I just got a verbal offer from Apple. The title is “Senior Wireless Engineer”. My PhD is in Electrical Engineering focused on Wireless a communications. About to graduate in July. I am not sure what the level is. I just put ICT4 for the post. The RSUs are 160K vested over 4 years. Is this a good offer?
Looks like a standard ICT3 offer which is typical for PhDs in HWT. You need to specify location. If bay area then may be ask for more base. If you’re not relocating you also may ask for more sign on. You’ll be in a better position for negotiation with competing offer, if not still won’t hurt to ask.
Thanks! The location is Cupertino and I am relocating for the job. How much base and sign on do you think I can ask for?
I know a guy who recently got 160 base (he had some experience prior to phd for full transparency) so maybe ask for 165~170 (since they will always give less). For sign on I’m not sure how much they offered (I assume 20K ?) if so then this is good + the relocation package. If they have not offered anything I would ask for 30K.
Also worth to mention in the current market its a good offer (even if they refused to pump it up). So congratulations and good luck.
Thank you!
Congratulations

Fair
