[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Has anyone done a national job search lately? What were your offers, in what field, and how did they relate to COL? I ask because a friend in Ohio just did. She's well known in her field, earned $175K in her last job and expected there to be a bigger difference between coastal and inland offers, but the spread was less than $30K. She turned down the DC offer because the COL/QOL was just not there. [/quote] That's true, but if you were doing it the other way around. Going from your job here in DC to somewhere in the midwest, your paycut would likely be more than that $30K.[/quote]
