      Guidelines and negotiation strategy stays the same. The difference is leverage and whether or not you’re in an industry that’s been impacted (some companies are doing exceptionally well!). If the company really cannot afford a raise or more money in the offer, they will let you know. You could build in a discussion for a raise at a future date into the offer or you could walk away, as an example

    Hi Linda,
    (just to give you a simple feedback)
    First and foremost you do have very strong and balanced arguments for most your videos :-) I like it!
    However i got very surprised to hear that you will give a number to set your desired salary, when many many other people won't recommend it.
    Because like you said it, the salary may change accordingly to areas and not so far areas. Second because we all know if candidates tries to hide some mistakes in their CV, a lot of employers "cheat" by dissimulating the bad side of the job. So what I mean is as long as you are not in the company you do not have a perfect idea of the main responsabilities , difficulties and stress of the job, it is impossible to set the precise amount of salary and this is how we calculate it(credentials, experience, toughness of the job etc).
    do we look wishy washy if we come with a range?
    You know i have been interesed in how to do interview since high school even now with my late late forthies and i went through some interviews.
    what i feel is if you show you know a lot of things if you answer things too well or even a little bit adament with your anwser they put you aside as they smell either someone too sure( which is not the case) or superior. So give them some signs of humbleness with not too fixed numbers not too fixed answers, and leave some room for discusion is not a mistake.
    but anyway i believe one would say that they came with the right answer if they got employed, don' they?
    I leave you with my opinion and wish you the best with other videos.
    Farid.

      I generally teach going in with a range. The “one” number is the one that you hold close to your heart and don’t reveal. It’s just a matter of how you tell the recruiter what the range is and then sell yourself later in the interview to get more money !

    As someone currently seeking to utilize skills like these, I've been watching a lot of videos/reading a lot of material to prepare. You've clearly had success here but I'm a little concerned/confused about some of your advice. Indications that one shouldn't bring up salary/initiate the conversation and implying that we should wait until an evaluation cycle are exactly the opposite things that male negotiators say - Perhaps it's because I just watched a video that scorned women for not being more emboldened, but do you think this information is gender specific? If so, do you think there's flexibility on bringing this stuff up instead of being so timid and scared to offend? Thanks for any insight.

      It’s not necessarily “favourable” attributes but unique attributes. Everyone has them, you just have to dig deeper to find out what yours are. This is something that a lot of my clients struggle with and we go through various exercises to coax this out. But once you discover it, the whole interview and job search game changes!

  • @lance4862
    @lance4862 Рік тому +2

    In regards to "give a number rather than a range", this is TERRIBLE advice that she's giving you. What works far better is to ask them what range they're offering for the position. Then you pick the top of that range I have gotten 40% raises by doing this. I have yet to have an employer not tell me the range and I've often been able to say well have you ever gone above it and what were their qualifications. So I'm always starting at the top of the offered range.

  • @IdiaOgala
    @IdiaOgala 6 років тому +621

    To the “don’t give a range point”, i think there’s more nuance there. A range is very effective if you make sure the lower point is what you actually want. That way, when the recruiter offers the low-end, in true negotiation fashion, you can feel content in agreeing and both parties will feel satisfied - you got your money & they were theoretically able to save the their company a few thousands.

    • @OneMinute4You
      @OneMinute4You 5 років тому +9

      Very good point. It also helps the recruiter to be upfront if they no that the possibility of what you’re asking is not likely. However, a down fall of this maybe that you offer a range that maybe was less than what the employer was planning to offer for the role. Obviously market research helps with this, but some companies are well ahead of the market and can offer more.

      I disagree. And you are missing the point. When was the last time you bought a car and the price was not posted in full view on the windshield. Or a gallon of milk? Same same...you see the price? Your choice is to invest or disagree and continue shopping. Salary negotiation is no different. Here is the sticker price...here are the options the car comes with...negotiating begins AFTER you see what you like and decide the price is in your budget. You need to sell the SIZZLE and not the steak. That is true sales...selling yourself first!

      that's exactly what Linda meant in "willing to settle" salary number. You have it in your plan but you don't say it to your manager. Because if you give them a range from the beginning you lose the chance yourself to deal for the highest number in the first place.

    @WaYsTiiD 6 років тому +272

    I appreciate the effort put into this video, but tip 3 is just not true whatsoever. By giving a specific number, you're setting the limit by yourself. Noone wants to negotiate with themselves when they can possibly get a higher salary. The best advice here is to give a range. But a calculated range "Based on the market research that I performed with similar companies, the average range is 75,000 to 95,000, and I believe I fall into the higher end of the spectrum because of x, y and z". The goal here is to establish a baseline from THE EMPLOYER so that you can max out what they are willing to pay. Once you have maxed this out, transition the conversation over by saying something like "I appreciate the offer you just made, its a lot closer to closing the gap, but I'd like also like to discuss other compensation methods such as a bonus structure or stock options. Would that be okay with you?". Giving them the power back, BUT opening the discussion into additional salary.

      i have over 15 years experience and per my research in my field with my education background my pay range is 41,000-60,000yr but in FL nobody wants to pay me more than 33,000yr to start and label me as "entry level" when im more in the median. thats $5hr less than i should be making. im in my mid- thirties and look 21 so i feel that hurts my chances of being taken seriously because the minimum i need to survive and support myself is 40,000yr. in interviews i do not give a number. i ask what their pay range is and go from there once they give me a number i tell them my expectations are within your range. but i hate it when jobs do not ask about my expections and only go based off my salary history bc what i made at my previous employer is not what i need at moment bc my resume goes back no more than 10 years (3 employers total) and it is insulting when i get an offer for less than what thsoe 3 employers paid me. i would prefer a job offer close to my recent employer salary than an employer rate i had 3 years ago or so

  • @sfveggie
    @sfveggie 5 років тому +39

    In regards to salary range, I do love the suggestion to have an ideal number and willing to settle number - it seems that this could be the range. For instance, $100k (settle #)--$110k (ideal #) and this way one can get somewhere in between those two spots. Having one number doesn't really allow for negotiation nor does it take into account other factors - commission/bonus, equity, etc. Also, one question I have is when an employer doesn't give a range in the beginning. I'm currently interviewing and they haven't really given me any range or number and my fear is the offer will be way lower than I will take and the entire interview process will be a waste of time on both parts (this actually happened to a friend who wished she had brought up the salary earlier in the interview process). Suggestions for this situation?

  • @antonzhloba6929
    @antonzhloba6929 3 роки тому +1

I became worried. The next day, they decided to offer $2k less than my ideal number. I’m satisfied with that. So glad I gave my ideal number. Not saying that this will work for everyone.

    About the salary range - if it's a bad idea, because every single employer will go for the lower end, wouldn't it be a good idea to give a range where the lowest number is actually what you think you are worth and would make you happy? The other side is also happy because it may feel like a win for him... he feels he's paying the lowest option, so he saves some money.

      Mabus hmm, I don’t necessarily agree. Every position has a fixed budget. If they like you and you are below the budget, they’re not thinking “yes, we got a discount!”. Employers are looking for the best fit, not the lowest cost. If they do focus on paying low, they’re shooting themselves in the foot. They know you will come in and talk with your colleagues once you become friends. And when you find out you’re paid low, you will be pissed and what if you find something else and leave? They don’t want that! Took them a lot of sweat and tears to get you! I made a video where I talk about these kind of assumptions. I have worked first hand in HR and hired over 5000 people in 7 countries, and have always seen this to be true. And when I have seen employers say ‘yes, we got a cheap candidate, which was very rare, they got what they deserved: an unhappy employee who eventually left.

    "not bringing up salary" thing I think has evolved over the last 5 years. Too many employers are playing time-waster games where they won't give you a range until the very last moment. And I think a lot of people are feeling taken advantage of going to three interviews, doing quizzes, (I was given literal homework assignments by my interviewer) and not having one of the most important bits of information available.
    I think respectfully asking about the pay range early on with the job description is perfectly acceptable. After all the entire agreement of a job is to provide money for goods and services. Why is it considered money-hungry to politely establish what your end of the bargain is?
    Only shady employers and arrogant ones will cast doubt on your ability to perform for simply asking about compensation. We might be extremely interested in the company and their mission, but let's be clear, This isn't charity work. And playing coy with salary and people's livelihood it's just not a great way to set up a trusting and transparent business relationship in my opinion.

    What do you respond when asked "what are your salary expectations", and the candidate has experience(in his/her late 20s,with a couple of years of experience, not a lot ), but has switched careers and doesn't have any experience in that new job? Should that candidate give a number or no? How can a candidate maintain the same lifestyle, and have the ''appropriate " salary (number in mind which is his/her bottom line,I am not talking about luxury lifestyle ),but not offend the employer or under-appreciate the employer that is willing to offer the job to him/her? Mind you, I live in the SEE region,not USA. Thanks a lot!

  • @clivepevilc
    @clivepevilc 7 років тому +3

    First off, thanks for the tips. I really liked tip #3 and I agree with #5.
    To anyone reading, can anyone give me some specific advice?
    I'm a recent graduate and currently considering accepting a job offer for a job I like. I'm perfectly ok with the salary that was proposed during the application process.
    However - I will have to cancel a flight and skip my master's graduation to start the job, since they need me to start soon. Is this good grounds to negotiate a signing on bonus?
    Do you have any advice on other clauses? For example, having 6-month performance reviews (instead of 1-year) or loyalty bonuses?
    If it helps, the company is a start-up, and there aren't too many similar jobs I can compare with.

    What if your ideal number is say $90,000, but they are expecting you to say somewhere around $75,000? Could that be an immediate turn-off to the company and they then revoke the offer? Even if $85,000 is the average, that would be my willing to settle number, but would they revoke the offer entirely or reject your number with a number of their own? Also, what happens if the employer gives you a really low number first, instead of asking you and claim they won't negotiate higher?

    • @mattpujol4787
      @mattpujol4787 6 років тому +8

      The operative word is "negotiable". If 90K is your walkaway number, then you have to walkaway or change your negotiating position. I would hope if you stated "$90K" that it was your opening number, not your walkaway. The way a negotiation works is they come back with a counter, then you counter and its done. Salary negotiation is just like selling your house. You never list your house for the minimum you'll take. If the buyer offers you your listing price right off the bat, then you left money on the table.

    4-Go in with leverage (mention the number of offer you get)

    It is not set in stone yet, but I have been offered a promotion to a low-level manager if it is for sure available. I am conflicted on what to ask for the hourly rate because I am making $11 and already had wanted more when I started but was told that was the cap. I have a feeling that the offered rate for the position is $14 even though I really want $16. Yet my friend thinks I should ask for $18 since Glassdoor says that's the highest range. I don't want to see unreasonable by asking for a huge pay increase, though, and any raise os better than nothing. And yet I would be working more hours which means I would be sacrifing more time which I should value as much as that pay raise. I could ask my coworker that I would be taking over for what she is making but then I feel like she might get upset with me if I end up making more than she was then because of asking her. I know that I have more leverage, though, because I work really hard and drive the highest number of donations.

    3:15 -ish i agree. I have watched so many videos or blog/documents online, they almost always say, oh NEVER give a specific number, especially in a job interview situation. Now, regardless on who said what based on why, I personally would like to tell (and have been telling) the interviewers an honest answer - I'm here to get the job, not bargaining at a flea market, don't try to play games. I tell them what the # i got from my *research* , then the # I would *love to get* based on the research with added value (what i can bring to and do for the company in the near future), and a # I'd be *willing to start with* (this is bottom line BUT tell them this is for first # of month, show them you're willing to test the water just like them and that you value learning time and willing to take that on your own).

    My friend asked a pay increase when one of her team members quit his job. Since the person who quit, his work load divided between her and another team member. My friend was doing the same duties and roles as the person who quit and other team member, but she received lower salary so she asked for her salary increase. This action could have caused retaliation against her in the future by HR or company. Do you think she did the right thing to ask at that time?

    What are you smoking? My value is not defined by the artificially repressed rates being offered in my area. Prices have gone up three fold from twenty years ago, yet my salary has not tripled. Asking for a raise does not have to be "timed toward the performance review time of the year". What fairy tale world do you reside in? My employer severely underpaid me when he hired me in due to the fact I was unemployed at the time. That's called taking advantage of people. I can ask him to make it right at any time. Glad I never followed your tactics as you seem to be in collusion with the mafia in my area.

    Hello Linda. Greetings.
    I was recently at a meeting/interraction with the CEO of a good company for discussing our mutual fit for the Head - Supply Chain Position and in the entire communication....
    On all my answers to his questions he inferred that “ Prashant had I been in your place my answer would be this….. and my answer would be that”.
    Practically he seemed not to be convinced to what I said and he out of blue in the midst wanted to know my salary expectations which practically does not hold good and hence requested him to share the Salary range.
    I made my point that transparecy has to be both side and we are required to be respected as professionals equally.
    Unfortunately I just had to walk out of the room cutting short our meeting.
    Thanks With Best Regards,

    Hi Linda,
    These days one is asked about salary expectations and or a salary history BEFORE talking to anyone in an interview situation. This negates the change to TALK to the employer and explain experience and value etc.
    Please post a video on how to respond to a salary expectation when it is asked on an online application. One cannot explain one's value in a field especially if there is no space on the application for extra information. Doing vast market research (with respect to area, cost of living, education experience) is not helpful if said company cannot PAY market value for said position. This is sometimes stated in employer review sites.
