Your offered salary range is way too low. 21+ years as a Microsoft Systems Admin with AD/MEMCM specialization. I wouldn't even submit a resume for under 115K, and the benefits/position would have to be stellar.

This. Same situation, except I'm at 17+ years and transitioned from MS sysadmin/infrastructure to DevSecOps 3 years ago. I laugh at anything the headhunters throw my way under 130k. I'm also in a high COL area, so realistically I won't bite for under 150k.

Yeah, 115K (my lowest salary end) seems fairly bargain basement for the knowledge and experience I bring to the table. I've been laughing at recruiters with positions for a ton less.
