I have a couple of interviews with another actuarial firm coming up next week.

The job I'm pursuing makes you track the time you spent on each project throughout the work day. It's called time-based billing and it's common in actuarial consulting. Still, the pay is better, the benefits are better, and I get to live in a big, beautiful city, so I think I would take the job over my current one.

What I really want to do is get a job offer at the new company and use it to kinda force my company to let me work fully remotely. I don't want to live in this town.

Do you get paid based on what you bill in that job? And who would be responsible for winning those projects?

@BlueVeins As long as it is the case. I would ask this question in the interview, as to whether I have an responsibility to win projects and avg expected volume of projects. Do not make it seem about money, but rather you understanding your job description and you can even say that in previous experience there were not enough projects and that you like to be fully engaged and utilized to gain exposure and develop skills. You can make it seem about the understanding the type of projects they have and their operations

@BittersweetPotato I don't really want that at all though. Ideally I'd like to sit around and twiddle my thumbs for 100k a year, which is what would happen if I could not get enough projects.

@BlueVeins Then definitely do not say that in the interview
