[quote=Anonymous]Hello! I am ~35 years old. I am a bottom step GS-15 at a fairly prestigious federal agency. I manage a team of 10 masters-level economists. My prior experience is in consulting and on the hill. My field is healthcare policy. I am a high performer and work hard (~55 hours per week). I like my job, but there isn't much upward mobility. I know I would be a competitive candidate at some lobbying and consulting firms, as I regularly get reached out to by recruiters. But so far, the roles haven't seemed better than my current job. Let's say I had a few years in my current role, great references, and great contacts. [b]Any guess as to what kind of roles and compensation might I be competitive for in the private sector? What is the optimal time to move?[/b] I'm happy networking and also happy to patiently wait for the right opportunity. I need to stay in DC. I know a lot depends on the details, but any general thoughts would be much appreciated. Thanks so much![/quote]
