      Andrew LaCivita perfect timing my 2nd interview is on Friday 3/15/19. The position of vp of sales/sales manager of a team of 5 commissioned sales professionals, who are making 125-150k per year, is a new job description for this company and they don’t know where to start with compensation. Your input is appreciated for pay package recommendation.

      Andrew LaCivita I need your advice! Im about become a father in September. I’m also going through a process of testing phase for IT Director position...... when it comes to negotiations/interview process, should I ask for the baby bonding time off? I’m looking to get 2 weeks off but I’m not sure when, how and even if I should mention this to the employer.

    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.

      This is the comment! I think this is why I haven’t been hired in the past. Employers don’t see that you can grow. They take your previous salary and essentially pre-judge and also questioning why you think you deserve so much more not realizing you could potentially be their most valuable worker!

    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.

I just landed an entry level job as a developer at GM and I honestly don’t think I’d have been able to do so without your guidance. I was honestly horrified when I found out the final round was a whole 2 hour behavioral interview and since I don’t have any internship experience I was afraid of how I would have enough to talk about for a whole 2 hours.

    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 (th-cam.com/video/FwHPeelA_qw/w-d-xo.html) is a good starting point in the video about how to talk about salary on applications and interviews.

    • @insightinspiration9922
      @insightinspiration9922 ปีที่แล้ว

      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

  • @pfsagm2005

    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
      @andylacivita  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      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!

    Hey Andrew, I just came back from a job interview, first time for a junior position. They flat out asked me what I wanted to earn, so like you taught me, i told them pay is not the only thing, other factors are important. But they kept hammering on a number. What should I do?
    Now I gave them a number the other company offered me (which was way more then this one was thinking about), but still got invited for the next round.

So we hired the one guy at about $85k and the other guy we literally just interviewed as quickly as possible and moved on.

I told me a value and she gave me the sense that she thinks I've expected too much. So I used the script from you 'how to answer the what's your expected salary' video. During the interview, not only did she force me to give her my exact last drawn salary, she also kept telling how im not as experienced as the amount of pay im expecting and how my previous company was actually overpaying me.

I was told I was in the running my first month in. After I proved myself and worked hard. I was told I am getting promoted. My field is very short handed and it’s hard enough to find anyone with my experience. I know I have the upper hand. I will not post here my plans when I negotiate. But. My question is this. If I get what pay increase I want but they will not budge on the insurance cost or match any 401k. Can I ask for a company vehicle as compensation? It’s pretty common as managers and supervisors to have one. My position was eliminated for 1 year because my Manager had a bad experience with the last supervisor. Thx.

    I am wondering if the variables you mentioned strictly apply only to the private sector or extends to the public sector as well? For example: the advertisement of the salary range for a job: Can you expect to negotiate beyond the range for a public sector (government job) considering grades and step ups?
    Also, if the advertised ranged for a government job is lower than what you currently make, does it make sense (in the end) when an offer is made to disclose your current salary with paystubs as evidence to negotiate? Thank you for your feedback and the tips, they are helpful.

      All companies generally have a written offer and employment contract.

If you do, want to agree, verbally, mention to them that those numbers seem great and that works as long as once you see the written offer there is nothing that alters the total compensation.

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.

      Eric, breeze through the salary negotiation playlist on my channel for more on your question. The short answer is to be upfront and honest with the employers and let all of them know how your interviews with other companies are progressing. When you receive offers let them know that too. You are simply informing them. You don’t need to make demands with the employer who hasn’t given you one yet. Let the employers decide but share your sentiment. On office hours, I do them on Thursdays, but I do not do them on weeks I’m conducting my job search boot camp (such as right now and next week).
