[quote=Anonymous]MB here. If you're getting consistent feedback from potential employers that your rates are higher than other applicants they're considering then you probably need to accept that, or find a way to make your qualifications stand out in order to justify your rate. If you need flexibility for schooling, and may not be available for a multi-year position, and your rates are higher, then you are going to be less attractive than other candidates. It's just the marketplace. I don't think $16/hr is particularly high. But I also don't pay that much as the base rate for the 50 hr/wk position for our nanny. And we have two kids and live in close-in Montgomery County.[/quote]
