Hi guys! Great video, very informative! I have a question 🙋♂️ I negotiated my salary at the top end of the salary band for the position that I applied to and was pretty happy about it, until 2 weeks later they changed the salary band and the lowest and highest ends of it were raised by 11K. So after that I felt pretty shitty. What can I do in this situation?
Thanks guys, really helpful video. I also always negotiate the salary and mostly i am succesful in a raise. I would love to see a video from Canada Style resume and a big 4 interview questions and respective ans. plus commonly asked questions during the interview in Canada.
Great video!! I would love more advice on how to ask for a raise when you are in the role. I have been in my current role for a year and a half. They gave me a small raise at the year mark and the entire organization gets a 3% raise for inflation every year. I'm at the higher end of the salary band they provided however I now have over a year of experience in the role and can bring a lot more to my position. Any tips for asking for a raise?
It's self advocacy which I was really terrible at. At my former job I just let them abuse me. I mean, I'm an immigrant, a woman, alone, and autistic (But with a high IQ). But this was where the stuff came to light right? I didn't know what to say and what to do to advocate for myself. I let them pile crap on me like a mule. It was not dignifying, and my mental health took a dive because of that. I also still don't know how to do it right. Teach me sensei! Teach me 🥲
definitely want to hear one on how to negotiate while you're in your role, especially for those who don't have an "annual review" per se. Thanks for the great content!
I remember a January when I was being offered a job and when I negotiated the compensation they rejected it and changed their mind about the overall job offer. In less than 3 months, I got a job offer that offered 3x as much benefits and double the salary.. The salary was pretty competitive for the field and it was on the 'lower' scale as at the time I haven't yet completed my degree. After I got the degree and got a few certificates they raised it even more with additional benefits! Made me wonder how many other companies are like this.
@@CryptoAlex1 these were from 2 separate companies. I was making about 45k in Jan from my old job n the new job offered around 135k outside of benefits. I actually didn't negotiate as it was more than I could ask for considering I lacked the degree. (It's in I.T btw)
I watched this in retrospect and I'm glad that the way I negotiated (in email/call) follows mostly what you suggested (appreciation, reassurance & concern/collaboration). One negotiation was a year ago and it was successful. Another one is happening at the moment and I hope it's going to be another success haha, thank you for the content!
This is good to know because I have been chronically underpaid. I had a second interview this week and no offer yet. I don't think I know how to do the research, because they asked if I could be more flexible on my range. I responded and said I am not flexing and I'm willing to continue my search. I don't know if I am being strung along for another meeting with a decision maker. But, I HATE this part but am tired of not being valued. The people who don't know how copy and paste without right clicking make more than me and it's sad being my age.
When you're asked to fill out a "Desired salary" or "Minimum acceptable salary" during the application. What is your recommended way to answer this question?
I was asked this. I gave my bottom line, line in the sand number at 95k. My recruiter knows this, anything below is unacceptable. There after is negotiable once an offer is presented. Me: here's my minimum happy number mid 90s range Rec: here's 98k + comp = total comp 108k offer Me: is there flexibility on the base salary? My expectations for this role was 105k. Could you meet me halfway at 102k?
You guys are absolutely great! Love the content of this episode, this is what they don’t teach you in college and university! You are doing your audience a huge favour by sharing this knowledge!!!! Bravo!
This advice is classist. When I was in my 20s, I had to take any old job because I would have been homeless if I didn't. I couldn't move back in with my parents. I did almost lose offers by trying to negotiate. I really need to have health insurance with no gaps, so I can't jump ship whenever. I find that when I negotiate, there's always an approval process. The hiring manager may agree to the dollar amount and then HR says no.
Yeah this vid is not very realistic. The only time you can negotiate a higher salary is if you have the leverage to do so. If you were laid off or fired from your previous job, you literally have no negotiating power. You also have no idea how desperate or not the company is to hire you, if you know they are in bad need of the position to be filled and you're one of the only candidates to bother applying, it's obviously a completely different situation.
I've negotiated it and they said they can't afford to give me more money. Getting another job is hard and a hustle as where I live there a 35% unemployment rate. So goodness gracious I don't know what to do.
Great video! What happens if they gave their salary range upfront, and you said that you're flexible but don't necessarily give them an exact number or range, and they give an offer at the top of their range? Can you also negotiate salary in that instance?
Thank you so much for uploading this video! Really impressed with the confidence and ambition of these presenters. LOVE the fact the a woman is sharing her experience here. Females are expected to be demure, soft spoken dare I say....passive. It's tough knowing how to be upfront while not being too forward or too aggressive. Worth vs greed...slippery slope. Digging these videos - keep it up!!!
I was offered a position today. The offer was lower than want I was expecting. I told the recruiter I was happy to accept the job, but after my research and range that was given to me, I counter offered for 5k more. I was advised that my counter would be reviewed by the Senior Recruiter and I would be contacted the next day. After watching your video I should have given them a range. I will let you guys know what happened.
I really like the company and position, and because I work in a niche industry it’s hard to find anything competitive when it comes to what the company offers - but yes got to say the salary could be higher. My company do have annual reviews but I’m not sure whether it’s an opportunity for negotiation or just ‘informing the change’. So any video on that topic would be much appreciated!
@@natashafromchicago8826 nobody. But as for my experience it only happened once (I have done over 1000 interviews with German and American companies)because I was insisting not to give them my salary range, so I kind of put myself in that position. This is a very good video, if you follow their steps, you will not be asked that question. If they ask you how much you make now, after you give your salary range, you probably do not want to work for them, because this question is a violation against personal data protection law, at least in Germany where I live.
Personally, I just ask them straight up what their salary range is. Use glassdoor for a ball park response. And if I find they lied later... forever hate them :P
Firstly, thank you for being transparent ! Really appreciate it. My question based on the video and a few other comments is that it seems the start was really low and hence that jump in 3 years . But what would you say for someone like me who started at 70 but still feel underpaid ? Just a bit of background, I have a masters degree in mech and have been working for almost a year.
So this job im interviewing for has a few bonuses given twice a year (approx 5k combined). However, that’s if the company as a whole hits their goals for the quarters. It could be smaller. Should that also be configured into my salary expectations? Or act like it doesn’t exist because it could fluctuate?
I have a very hard time with the research-- I work in the music industry, and there's just not much information on any of the salary websites. The job titles aren't standard titles like they would be in marketing or accounting and so many companies are bought out by other companies that it's hard to find the specific one.
What about an internal promotion? They asked for minimum pay expected, you interviewed for it, you have the job offer but they tell you your salary will be 15k less than you set your minimum pay at?
A lot of the comments don’t seem to trust or seem to relate to the advice in this video. There’s is a channel called BadAss careers and a woman with over a decade in experience of recruitment and talent acquisition gives EXCELLENT advice on resume, negotiation, finding your dream job etc. I used her tips and just landed a job that doubled my salary (:
Job mile tb to krayenge negotiate 😅.. I m ready for 2 or 3 profile because I have those skills......... But right now no luck But continuously I invested my time in those skills
You can… before I moved up to admin, I took a job for 75k but their range was originally 60-70k and I got another offer for $80k with a 5k bonus but the original range was 60-70k.
To my favorite person in the world LOL thank you for the videos and for how much of a great person you are. I wanted to share that after interviewing for 7 months, I finally received an offer for an Hr business partner role at an awesome company. The offer was over the phone. I asked if there was room for negotiation and she asked me what is my "Happy" number. My response was anywhere between 6-13% additional of what they had offered me which I think is very reasonable. Only 2 days have gone by but I can't lie, I am a bit nervous hoping they don't rescend. I know it is not common but still. What are your thoughts?
@Devy M Well, they rescinded the offer and didn't tell me why. However, I do know why. When they asked me when I could start, I said I can start next week because I have already trained my replacement and my manager was aware that I was leaving at some point. New company questjioned me about why I only gave 1 week notice then ghosted me. Luckily for me, I received an offer 2 weeks later from another company as an HR Manager with a much higher salary. "Everything happens for a reason". Bottom line, most companies out there simply do not care. They will ghost you in a drop of a dime. They didnt even have the courtesy to tell me the offer was rescinded but I emailed them all including their director and that is only when i received a response. They said "We decided to go a different route" A week later I saw the same posting again. I dodged the bullet and all worked out for me.
Do you guys regret leaving your corporate jobs given the state of the economy and staggering inflation right now? Also, do you think you have the appropriate knowledge to give this advice since you do not even have 5 years worth of corporate/professional experience?
No, we don’t - but we’ll be talking about this in a few weeks as we’re coming up on one year since we quit our jobs 😊 And we think it’s very important for people to talk about their experience with salary negotiation and what’s worked for them - it’s often not talked about enough and many people leave money on the table. We’re all about salary transparency, increasing your income and sharing knowledge. We have experience negotiating our own salaries, and as I (Steph) worked in recruitment myself (both at a recruitment firm and internally), I have that insight to share, too.
Am I supposed to accept the offer and then email them my proposition, or am I supposed to wait for a different proposition after emailing? I'm not sure what to do as I don't want to lose the offer (as I only have 5 days to accept or they'll deem it as I'm not interested)- I emailed them that I accept (but didn't click the accept button as I have issues with pay), but am not sure if I will lose the offer due to time. Please help!
Some people like employers who don't put salary range for the advertised position. I suggest to find work based on filtering out dodgy employers. Price tags on goods are missing type of employers... Others will argue all the way to ... headhunted. Contract and consultancy positions are ... Middle sandwiched positions known as ... are ...
i got my first job at the start of 2020 and only got 35k my second job i was offered 50k but negotiated to 70k my third job i was offered 90k but negotiated to 120k job hopping is the best way imo, i got multiple offers and played them of against each other i recommend getting an offer in writing before asking for more, that way if they say no you can still accept the offer they gave you

I moved from 35.000$ to 50.000$ in 3 months and to 70.000$ in 11 months.
Power of negotiation.
Amazing! Congratulations 👏🏿🙌🏻
It's self advocacy which I was really terrible at. At my former job I just let them abuse me.
I mean, I'm an immigrant, a woman, alone, and autistic (But with a high IQ). But this was where the stuff came to light right?
I didn't know what to say and what to do to advocate for myself. I let them pile crap on me like a mule.
It was not dignifying, and my mental health took a dive because of that.
I also still don't know how to do it right. Teach me sensei! Teach me 🥲
With the same company?

Hello, how r u? How did your job search go?
When you're asked to fill out a "Desired salary" or "Minimum acceptable salary" during the application. What is your recommended way to answer this question?
You know the boss is poorer than you in many area.sss
Same thing she said you give your minimum range but disguise it as the maximum you want.
Say, "willing to negotiate" if they allow you to instead of a number. Some applications online require a number, though.
I was asked this. I gave my bottom line, line in the sand number at 95k. My recruiter knows this, anything below is unacceptable.
There after is negotiable once an offer is presented.

Any tips on negotiating an offer due to inflation/cost of living etc?
This was super useful, thank you guys.
We're happy to hear that! 😊
One for a job you are already in would be great!! Thank you so much for the information as well!
It's very rare you'll ever see a big increase once you're actually in the door, that's why your first negotiated salary on arrival is so important.
What if they ask for pay stubs after the salary negotiation? Is that legal?
It’s not legal
Please do a video on differences between flag-poling and obtaining PGWP in normal way
Personally, I just ask them straight up what their salary range is. Use glassdoor for a ball park response. And if I find they lied later... forever hate them :P
Ha! Love that you ask them straight up 👏🏿👏🏻
I like you guys together ❤
Very helpful. Thanks!
We're glad to hear that! 😊
What about the range that they post on the job description?
Firstly, thank you for being transparent ! Really appreciate it. My question based on the video and a few other comments is that it seems the start was really low and hence that jump in 3 years . But what would you say for someone like me who started at 70 but still feel underpaid ? Just a bit of background, I have a masters degree in mech and have been working for almost a year.
The best way is shopping around when interviewing.
So this job im interviewing for has a few bonuses given twice a year (approx 5k combined). However, that’s if the company as a whole hits their goals for the quarters. It could be smaller. Should that also be configured into my salary expectations? Or act like it doesn’t exist because it could fluctuate?

The job titles aren't standard titles like they would be in marketing or accounting and so many companies are bought out by other companies that it's hard to find the specific one.
They included a range of $15-$20 should I negotiate from $20 and makw my way down? I would be happy with $17.50-18.00
Do u have a video yet on negotiating salary at current job?
Fantastic Video! I wish I had seen this early on in my career.
