This information is amazing. Thank you Mr LaCivita!!

Very great tips you've provided there! I remember in my earlier stage of my career where I made the mistake by disclosing the current salary to HR, and when it comes to negotiating the salary I was constantly being questioned about why am I demanding a much higher salary when I'm only being compensated for x amount. But the truth is, knowing your value proposition and recognize that your current salary does not always reflect the progression you've made in your current role by acquiring new skills and obtaining an advanced degree. That was the rationale that I've shared with the hiring manager and HR and guess what? They gave me a better offer than what I've originally asked for, plus some perks where I get to work remote 3x a day after I complete the first 180 days in the new role.

Dead on, I had a full time position open up to me a few years ago at the company I'm currently at. The position paid x which was no where near what I was making because it was in a different city, the HR person gave me a few excuses why they were only willing to pay x. I explained that they were looking to pay me 33% less than what I was making. I had done my homework as to what my monthly costs would be, job prospects in said new city and I said that the cost of living is about only 15% less. The HR person said he would go to management to see what they could do, about 3 weeks later they came back with an offer of only a 9% cut, which I was happy to take, especially considering that I would be at the top 1% for said position in said city and received 25 vacation days and great benefits. My total compensation actually rose by 30-35% and I might have left some on the table, but my quality of life has changed dramatically as well.

Great point about the inaccuracies of salary review sites like Glassdoor. Many pieces of advice is to use these sites to find a salary range, not realizing that some salary posts are biased. On top of that it is hard to find the exact position in the city you live with the company you are looking to work for. 25:45 (kzread.info/dash/bejne/eKt8sseenKTFodo.html) is a good starting point in the video about how to talk about salary on applications and interviews.

I interviewed for a job that was clearly tailored for a colleague (great pay, oddly low education requirement for a library). To make me happy they asked me to write up the job description of my dream job, which I did. They announced my accepting the job before I had. They finally told me my pay will be the same. With 2 Master's degrees, I have no intention of working for less than someone with less work experience and a high school diploma. It's a library in a town where the median income is $216,000. What can one do at a place that's paying all but 2 people low wages and is a government entity?

So true about not throwing the number out first. I've actually seen both spectrums being involved in the process, someone says they want $75-80k to a job we would have went up to $90-95K on, also someone says $125k on a job where $100k was about our limit. So we hired the one guy at about $85k and the other guy we literally just interviewed as quickly as possible and moved on.

You can tell them that the initial range given was being uninformed about the company and precise expectations of the role. After the interviews you have a way better idea and also see that the role is more senior and demanding than you expected therefore the range is not representative anymore

About answering the question about compensation... nowadays to even apply for a job, before they even consider looking at your resume you have to fill out an electronic application and you cannot submit it without answering the compensation question!!. Rarely, you are allowed to answer "open for an offer after the interview" because the field is configured to only accept numbers. ... I figured that at some point, one has to do and say what makes sense, but I like to hear a suggestion?

@andylacivita

2 жыл бұрын

Andrew. Great question. I have covered this at length in a few of the other salary videos. The short answer is on the application if it’s an open field write the word open or negotiable. If it’s an open field but requires you to enter in number put $1.00. If it is a drop-down menu where you have a range of numbers such as $50,000-$54,999, $55,000-$55,999, etc. then just pick the range that is somewhat near what you’re currently earning. Don’t worry about whether you think you’re going to low or too high. Every organization recognizes that you know very little about their opportunity and they’re not going to hold you to what you put on the application. Then, when you get into the interview process, you will sell yourself effectively and you will also learn more about what it is they want you to do. When they give you an offer at the end you can renegotiate at that time if you are not comfortable. Hope this helps!

Thank you very much ! In Germany we are told to give the first answer and say "72000 a year", and in a startup they pay even much less, since they have no money ! Now I see this is all a big betray.

I'm currently in a situation where I do not know how to respond to a job offer. I make more than the industry average, but I am also exceptionally more well rounded and educated in the average person in my position. My current salary is approximately 50% more than the job offer I received. During interview process I used the tactic of trying to avoid discussion of salary at the beginning. The company however advised me of what that salary range would be which was a flat number. The job offer matches that number. The Delta between the two is fairly significant.

So,the company responds by lowballing you in their offer. On my side, I know that I'm a great fit for the role and that they have been searching for more than 6 months to fill this role, but I don't know what I'm worth for the company.

The employer needs to put something, but it's not usually an absolute on the top or bottom of the range.

Hey Andrew, Thanks so much for all this great advice. Really appreciated. May I ask what if, you are are interviewing in between jobs. You manage to defect the salary expectation question, but they ask how much you earned at your last job?

Philip Tsang I would lie about previous job wages because they don’t have proof of it lol

Hey Andrew, just discovered your channel and its been really helpful. Im actually writing a cover letter for a company im interested in at the same time as watching this video. The company I am currently applying for has a write in portion of the application in which they ask that you tell them what makes you unique with a statement to "be creative". I take it that this would indicating personal interests and the like rather than professional skills, correct? Also, would you have any tips on further information about cover letters. I have watched your video on cover letters already and was wondering about other links as well. Thanks in advance for any help.

David, I have an entire cover letter playlist where there are at least 3-4 videos on various types you can write. Stick to the professional skills when being creative on the app.

David Bennett you’re welcome buddy. Will do!

I watched this to prepare for my phone interview. I was expecting the question about my current salary or the range I was expecting. In my research, I figured out I was under paid at my current position at 52k + 2.5% bonus. My research showed about 65-75k for my role in the market. The recruiter started the call by saying I was a good fit and the hiring manager already had my resume. He asked 2 questions about what drew me to the position and company. He finished the conversation by volunteering that the pay range was 90-110k + 12% bonus. I am trying not to get my hopes up for an offer since I still have the call with the manager and possibly the half a day onsite interview. I am super qualified in a niche job though. How do I possibly negotiate when I know I am dealing with money way over any of my research and expectations? It is a Biotech company with multiple sites so this isn't a mom and pop shop.

Oooh. That starting salary probably could've been bumped up an additional 15%. What happened???

What if you already revealed to them what you currently make in an interview and they offered you 10 grand less in the emailed job offer. I reiterated again through email, what I’m currently making, my value, and I’m waiting on a response from them. I expect them to come back at me with a counter offer or let me know they will come back to me after discussing with HR. I feel I should let them know what the market is paying which is 40k more than what they offered me. Any tips or feedback?

I am in salary negotiable stage through email. They have offered x amount after my negotiate . Again I have sent email with negotiate with 10percentage increase from their x amount with benefits. I am waiting for their reply tomorrow. But unfortunately when I see the job board they have posted the same job post . Is that sign off of negotiations not went well😭? Is it good to get back them on track with good offer? How to email?
