    OMG YES! The awkward silence! When I was in my late 20ies, applying for my second job, they asked about my salary expectations and I gave them what felt to me like a pretty high range and then intuitively just said nothing else. We all looked at each other for what felt like forever. Then the HR lady shrugged her shoulders, said "Well, we'll have to see how to make this possible then" and we went over to the next topic. I swear they were waiting for me to pull back etc., soften my tone, giving them options. She tried another time while on the phone with me, something like "We are currently working on drafting your contract, we kinda have to see how we can make YOUR salary expectations work within our business". Again, I just "okay"ed it and said nothing more. I got the money. And it was nothing crazy! It's a reasonable salary. I think they were just trying to intimidate me. So if you can - embrace the silence!!

    Hi Erin!! What you are doing is so amazing. My husband and I didnt have anyone in our families to give us job advice, so we really look up to you. It means the world that you make this type of information ACCESSIBLE to the people that need it the most.
    I have a question: why does it feel like EVERYONE is hiring for high-level positions (CEO, Director, requirements with a Bachelor’s and 10+ years experience in management)? I feel so unqualified for everything and I can feel myself getting discouraged in my job search.
    Thanks again, Erin!!

  • @a.m.5456
    @a.m.5456 10 місяців тому +24

    Thank you! 3 questions tho:
    1. Should I ever bring up the money talk? What if they don't bring it up during the interview and just ask me if I have any questions? (Happened to me so I asked about the compensation...)
    2. What if they keep pushing like 'Just tell me some number. We just want to know how much people would like to make'. Also happened to me and it was really uncomfortable...
    3. What if they have a wide range and just ask me where I see myself? I don't have much experience so would it be fair to accept... the lowest since I don't have many arguments?

      1. No unless you have a competing offer and need to speed things up, but that’s a whole other topic.
      Otherwise you only risk a negative impression being made. The time will come eventually.
      2. Use your market research to give a top of band number, and Erin’s advice about flexibility with regards to the rest of the compensation package is a good one and can help push the ball back in their court.
      3. Still put yourself in at least the top quartile because you’re special. If they see you as lower make them say so, don’t do it for them. Your self assessment can keep you from the bottom of the range at least.

    You a babbie girlie!!! I just received a casual job offer for my dream job!!!! After three rounds of interviews. I sent a follow up email the senior recruiter that initiated my first phone interview. To inquire about where they were in the hiring process and reiterated my interest and experience. Now this was a Friday morning. She responded saying that she would get back to me that coming Monday by end of day and thank me for my patience. Then three hours later I got a quick update email from her saying she connected with the team, and they want to extend me an offer. She also asked for a time to quickly chat about compensation on Monday. I am studding your videos and am believing and manifesting I will be offered the high end of their budgeted compensation. If you have any advice for my current scenario, please share or make an amazing video as you always do!!! Kepp up the grate work!!!

    Thank you so much for this video! I follow as much as I can everything that you post, especially related to job search. I was able to learn in the phone screening What is the salary range as it wasn't disclosed in the job posting. I used one of the phrases suggested in this video. I have to thank you for your positive attitude also and for encouragement that you sent to everybody who is following you. I came across recruiters who give advice but who also tried to make people feel helpless so they can go to them and pay for their services.

      I progressed to the next stage of the interview! the HR person who was in the panel interview was so shocked when I asked her what the salary range was, that she told the panel that they have learnt something new that day.
      It made so much sense. Like, when I go to the market and ask the seller how much their products are. She felt tricked almost, but I asked a completely logical question in a transactional setting. Thanks @AdviceWithErin!

    I enjoyed this plus the psychological tactics . Here’s where I don’t agree , if I ask what their salary band with is ( what the position is budgeted for ) they could give a lower number than actual right ? That’s why I prefer more psychological tactic videos because I’m certain those work !

  • @amylyn722

    Love your content because it helps people learn how to advocate for self! I have worked in my career field over 30 years. Things change over time, like discussing salary and wages during the initial interview. I think it's great! When I interview job candidates I want them to ask! I want them to be open and be willing to have those discussions as it tells me a lot about them.
    One question for you...what would your impression be of someone taking notes during an interview?

    I applied to a couple of organizations where the online application includes a mandatory field for the desired salary and you're unable to enter the range You can just enter one amount, One numerical value. Later I found out that their range for the roles I applied for is very low and that is their way of eliminating people who want to Be paid more even if they have required qualifications and experience

    I've had the dreaded input box a lot on LinkedIn Dx for instance, asking how much I expect to be paid per blog and Im like "uhhh that really depends on several factors there, buddy" but they do *not* let you put in a range or explain anything. Nope. Just a flat rate.
    I assess the job description to see what I'll most likely be writing (like determining how many blogs ill likely be doing a week, how long they'll be, if and how much research I may need, etc) and then put the bare minimum of what I'll accept.
    Thanks for the tips, Erin! :D

    10:12 actually a red flag. 🚩🚩🚩This was one of the quesitos on my recent interview. Luckily I did not hear it well, so after her third attempt to ask me that, she said: It is very important to us that you ARE NOT in some other negotiations or having some final rounds of selection. I said I was not, which was correct, that was my only interview.
    The point of her question was to navigate her whether to eliminate me or not (this is called time management). I proceeded, my second round of the interview will be next week with the director of department. 😊

    Thank you for sharing the links for that are in effect by these laws. I'm thinking that companies forget that interviews are meant to be compatibility assessments for the employee too. It wastes everyone's time when they won't own up and say what they are and are not willing to pay. It wastes the applicants time and gas money and possibly money they spent for their interview clothes. It wastes the interviewer time because they could have moved on to someone who is qualified for the job and is appropriate for the level of pay being offered (such as a part time worker or a newly starting out worker.) It wastes the time of the background checker if there is one before the interview begins. And that all is a waste of money for everyone involved.

  • @katypopaty2287
    @katypopaty2287 2 години тому

    What can I expect when when the salary band is already revealed before the interview? If they ask me for my expectations, Do I still ask them to share the salary band or do I just tell them that my salary expectations align with the salary band published?
    then I wait for their decision, job offer and then negotiate right?
    Your videos are so helpful! 🧡

    Is there something you would recommend doing in such a case?

  • @mizzle8
    @mizzle8 4 місяці тому

    I wholeheartedly agree transparency laws are great, but sometimes it’s led to wildly broad salary ranges 😅 I’ve seen companies say “$100k-$300k”…
    Also, the first two answers wouldn’t work if they did post the salary range in the job description. Any advice for if they still ask you this after providing a (probably broad) range?
    Also also, I really wish I had seen this video before I had to have this conversation a week ago and did allll the wrong things 😅

    Next field after was also interesting - “reason for leaving” - again - FOR EVERY - SINGLE - ONE - JOB - EVER - WORKED!

      If you’re applying for a job that would exceed 90k and you want $90k, then say $90-$110k is your range.

    Hello Erin, would help figure out whether or not I will be hired according to my interview?
    I had my interview last day and got passed in the first round of the interview and right after the first round I was short listed for the second round and had the second one also yesterday. The second round is the round when they decide whether to hire me or not. The interview begin perfectly, they also asked me three Grammatical questions since it is a teaching position and I answered them all correctly. Despite other candidates they didn't ask me much grammatical questions but asked me about myself and how will I manage the class. I used the tips you have made the videos of. As the manager was saying "very good", " mmm", " yes" I think they were satisfied until he asked me about my age. As I said it, they told me that they have to discuss it with the team but if my age wasn't the issue he would accept me for the next step as my skills, knowledge and experience fit with what is required for the job. Additionally, I think there is no problem with the age of mine because I have already searched about it and inquired others who got the job with the same age as me also they were said the same thing, however they are teachers now. Moreover, he became friendly at the end and suggested me how to become more successful and the tips that I can work on for improving my skills were comprehension, listening, vocabulary, I convinced them according to my skills I'm quite good in the mentioned points. Since I inquired them if I'm not accepted and got failed, they responded that "'No' you are not failed you are a perfect candidate, you can become a perfect instructor even not now in 5 months you will definitely be but remember not to be unemployed if didn't get accepted and work somewhere else for you have the talent, skills, knowledge". My answer at the end was " I will try my best sir, also I'll choose a costume that cam make me appear a bit older I'm much passionate and interested to get this job and I've worked really hard, please don't disappoint me" they said" I'll put the best of efforts" then I asked "when can I expect to hear for the next step" the manager was uncertain about it so he said he will contact me. Then I left by saying Thank you, sir. Thanks!
    The question is that am I accepted or not according to my interview?

    Dear Erin, thanks for all your great advices. I wish if I saw this video prior my HR interview. They asked me my salary expectation, and I provided the same range I entered in the online application. I got the 2nd interview, but I noticed the range I provided is lower than the range they put in the job description. If I get an offer, should I stay within the range I provided, or is there a window where I can negotiate for higher. I feel that I am obligated to stick to my initial response. Any advice would be very appreciated.

    How do we answer this question when they've posted a giant salary range? I'm in Washington and I deeply appreciate the transparency laws, but companies also sometimes use that to post a range from 50-150k. Having done research on the position, obviously you can go with some of these phrases "I'm looking to be fairly compensated for my work but I'm flexible" blah blah, but once presented with the pay range that is so large, do you respond to that at all with numbers to narrow it down? I wouldn't want to count myself out of the upper range of a position but also literally couldn't afford to take something below a certain number.

    Erin, what if a company hasn't disclosed the salary two interviews in and I don't know how to navigate that conversation? I don't have a recruiter or talent acquisition person, just the hiring manager and director I am corresponding to. How do you sneak asking if the job pay range is worth it and then negotiating from there?
    Also I tried negotiating another internal transfer at my current company and they only offered me $2k more than the base offer. But at least I tried

    Some companies only allow you to type one single salary number without punctuation on their application, so typing a range is not possible........
    May I ask how I can deal with this situation? 😅

    Here's what's scary... I'm interviewing for another position at another location within my company! The managers all know each other! How in the world do I ask for my salary to just, "roll over"? I am being forced to resign from my current property. The one I'm applying at is a larger base pay minimum, but it is not bonus eligible like my current roll. The ball seems so NOT in my court. And I've bonused every year. It's all just so bleh :(
