A referral and a recruiter invitation are both outside signals, but neither is an offer. Compare the Travel and Career Palaces only after noting the actual role, pay range, interview stage, and written evidence for each lead.
A referral and a recruiter message are both external signals, not offers. The Travel Palace can frame how opportunities arrive; the Career and Wealth Palaces frame role and pay. Compare each lead by written role, interview stage, authority, commute, and compensation before changing jobs.
Use the Travel Palace to organize outside leads. Rank the referral and recruiter message by written role, interview stage, and deadline before changing jobs.
