Think salary negotiations should only take place while interviewing? WRONG!! It is ideal to negotiate after getting an offer as well. Share what tactics you used to negotiate your salary after getting an offer. Did it work? Did you negotiate other perks as well? Let's get a conversation going!!

Tip 5 is excellent! Anything vital to you must be discussed and agreed upon as a priority.

Love your videos! Thanks so much for sharing!

I always mention what my last salary was as that sets the bar. From that they know anything less would not be of interest and an insult.

That's very interesting that you choose to volunteer your current salary up front. I myself would never mention my current salary to a potential employer. And if they did press me about it, I give them a range of what I'm making but never a specific number. Because your current salary has nothing to do with the value you can bring to the company regardless of what you're currently making. It's not relevant. Because you're already setting the bar low for yourself by giving them a number to nudge around. The only reason a company would ask what you're currently making is to benefit them by getting the cheapest candidate possible. Also, it gives you less advantage when it come to negotiating. You're giving them a low bar to work with allowing them to work with a small salary window. You should always go into an interview with the mindset of hey, I'm worth more than just an extra $3k - $5k increase than what I'm currently getting. Base your salary requirements on what you feel that you are "valued" at, not what your current salary is. Never let your current salary define your worth because you could still be getting under paid at your current employer. Just a little friendly advice that I was taught some years ago that I had to learn...😉

Pixee Pixel Hi thanks for your contribution, it’s a difficult topic. If you’re going for a job that is more than your last salary, how do you justify them paying you much more? Sure you could talk about your skills and credentials but interviewers are already on edge at interviews, they will probably go with the candidate that mirrors the opportunity they’re advertising, anything under that would be a risk. Salary is a major flag that either someone is punching above weight or trying/pushing their luck. At the end of the day it’s a negotiation, as soon as that question is asked. Anyone not wanting to enter into a negotiation would tell you what the salary is upfront and some businesses do. Also ‘what is your current salary’ is a direct question, so responding with something other than a direct answer wouldn’t come across well. in-terms of mentioning my salary, I wouldn’t volunteer the information, Id only respond to the question if asked. Jobs are usually advertised with a specific range of salary,so you know what the budget is. I mention my salary in these scenarios so they know the lower end of the spectrum wouldn’t be of interest to me. If your salary is at the lower end of the spectrum and they offer you what you’re on I’d take that as a sign of a bad employer. There is no incentive to leave your current position so why even bother. Also if your at the lower end I would suggest apply for jobs slightly above your current salary, that way you don’t look like an imposter pushing their luck. I know there are some jobs that don’t specify the specific salary, these ones I have no clue about navigating as you don’t know what they are prepared to pay; you don’t want to have an awkward negotiation, price yourself out or look completely delusional. If anyone has any insight on this please let me know. I was thinking, turning the question around and asking what the budget is? Also I think researching what others earn would be helpful in this scenario, but then again some companies are happy to pay much more or much less....

VACATION!!!!

During my interview, they asked me my salary range. And I just looked up their average salary for the position and its about $15k higher than what I originally asked for

This happens all the time. Though you've provided a salary range, should you receive an offer at that level, it is completely acceptable to negotiate to a higher level. You can let them know that after learning more about the expectations of the role (during your interview) you did more research and "X" amount is more in line with what my peers are making in the market to do this work.

Most decent employers are offering at least some remote working options. Why? Because the market demands it. Many candidates simply won't even consider a vacancy unless remote or hybrid working is an option. If a vacancy you're considering is solely office based, move on - unemployment is low for a reason.

Great video! Do you believe it would be rational to ask for a higher rate due to Covid? I was recently hired at a hospital so my chances of contracting the virus are at an all time high. Was just wondering if this would be a valid reason to earn more?

I wouldn't necessarily ask for a higher rate due to Covid-19. I would, however, ask if they offer hazard pay amid Covid-19. That creates an instant boost to your hourly rate and acknowledges the hazardous conditions.

I have a question for you. How does these tactics work for fairly entry level jobs? Should these be negotiated? I work in an industry that doesn’t necessarily pay well, report salaries, or seem to offer extravagant non-paid benefits. For example, public transit or a ride-share stipend would be something important that I would want to negotiate. I live less than 1-2 miles from the office of the job I’m interviewing with, so I think this is reasonable. However I’m often torn between that and the dollar amount I want to negotiate vs what I believe about how much the industry compensates this position. Any advice for that kind of situation?

Hi China. Thank you for your question. The first thing that I would say is to not make the assumption that an employer wouldn’t be willing to negotiate, even for entry level. Though it doesn’t happen a lot, it can. And especially if your request is not too extravagant. For something like public transit reimbursement or a ride-share stipend, I would simply ask if the organization offers this type of benefit considering your commute. As with any other negotiation, they can simply say yes, or no. Keep me posted, okay?

Goldman Sachs dropped the offer 4 days before joining thru their contractor ...The company and contractor Denied to hold discussions for terms and conditions for new working conditions Is this legal , ethical and moral ?.

If I am understanding you correctly, you are saying that you received an offer to be a contractor and later that offer was rescinded and you believe it happened because you spoke about working conditions. It that is true, I know that you must feel awfully frustrated right now. The hard part about your question is that I do not know the full context and I'm not an attorney. Because of this I cannot say for certain whether what they are doing is legal or ethical. I can say that I am very sorry to hear about your experience with this organization. You may want to ask your questions to an attorney. But in the meantime, keep your head up.

Should the offer negotiation be different for contractors versus staffed employees? I am waiting on a contractor offer and think I should ask for more.

@CareerSuccess

Wonderful question! I myself, have hired both contractors and promoted internal staff. Typically, there is a salary range for any position. A candidate's experience and skill sets are taken into consideration and also evaluated with comparable internal staff pay ranges. Keep in mind, you can negotiate the salary, but if you have already shared your salary requirement and later continuously to ask for more, this could leave a negative impression with the manager. If this is a position you desire, I would speak directly to your HR point of contact and come to a specific salary you agree with, avoiding back and forth with your potential new Manager. Thank you for watching!

Two and a half minutes into the video I finally find what I clicked it for.

is there a chance of getting rejected if I ask for $2000 more salary than what they already offered? I just did and it has been a day and I did not get any calls yet.

Many factors contribute to successful job offers, and additional interviews could be in process. Salary requirements may or may not contribute to rejection, but salary budgets have to be considered by the hiring manager. Remain optimistic and best of luck with next steps of the hiring process. Thanks for visiting the Career Success Channel. In the meantime, I think you will find this resource helpful while waiting to hear back from the employer. kzread.info/dash/bejne/hql4k9R-irLIn7g.html

Please advise how do you negotiate a salary during COVID while Employers have the power in this sad job market

@CareerSuccess

3 жыл бұрын

I appreciate your question. The best way to negotiate your salary still remains - have multiple offers. In order to have multiple offers, you must apply and interview for multiple opportunities. The other way to negotiate is to speak in terms of what will make you “whole again.” This means that if you had 4 weeks of vacation at your last employer, you are requesting 4 weeks of vacation with the new employer in order to make you “whole again.” Shift your mindset. Even in the midst of COVID, employers still want top candidates and are willing to negotiate to get them.

I gave a salary range for a position during the application process. The posted salary for the position was at the bottom of my range. However, I'm planning on asking for a number about $7,000 more than the posted salary after receiving my offer letter. I'd be happy settling at the midrange. Is this a wise start to negotiating my salary?

Hello and thanks for stopping by the Career Success Channel. There are no hard cast stones about when or whether you can have the discussion about negotiation after accepting. I do believe that your acceptance indicates to the organization that you are committed. If you want to have the discussion about whatever triggered you to have conversation about a future discussion, I would be very clear with data, specific reason for the request, clarity on your position of the salary offered, etc. Be careful not to lose your agreed offer. You must have a compelling story. Be clear on your questions.

Is asking two dollars more asking to much

@CareerSuccess

4 жыл бұрын

Nikeboy23, thanks for leaving a comment. Is asking two dollars more too much? Well, it depends. Keep in mind that asking $2 more in pay (for an hourly role) equates to $4,160 you are asking the employer to potentially commit to over the course of the year (not including the time and a half they would have to pay you at a $2 higher rate for overtime). So, I would not focus on whether $2 more is too much. Rather, I would focus on what the average person gets paid to work in this job and do the exact same work. Once you get that answer, compare THAT number to what the employer offered you to do the same job. If that is $2 less, then (at that time) ask for $2 more and use your data to back you up. I know. Long answer to a short question. Keep me posted on how things work out for you!

People actually do this?
