“The Offer”
“The Offer” Things to remember:
• Most companies make fair and realistic salary offers
• It is not in their best interest to make “low ball” offers
• They want to hire the best candidate for the job
• High employee turnover is an added expense to the bottom line for the employer
• Translation = the “Offer” should be good!
“The Offer”
• Anticipate objections to higher salary offers
• Be clear about your own value
• Be confident in your abilities, skills, professional experience and education
• Develop rebuttals to anticipate employers possible “excuses” for not wanting to raise salary levels
Discussing Salary History • Postpone this discussion as long as possible
• Discuss salary in future terms…. – “If I was to stay in my current positions the value
of my compensation package would be…” – “I would consider a salary range of…”
Negotiations
• Remember is not about winning, but about establishing mutual interests and goals
• Know where you can compromise
• Identity your possible competition
• Logically reiterate why you should be compensated at a greater level
Counter Offers
Counter Offers
• Investigate and determine your employer’s motivation
• Is it all about money?
• Will the underlying issues that motivated you to move be changing?
• Know that your loyalty will now be suspect and an attitude of negativity about your choice to leave may be present
• They may feel desperate to finish a project but may not be loyal to you and made the offer
• Do you really want to work for someone who only increased your salary because you were leaving?
• Take this offer as a complement and move on
Counter offers are offers from your current employers to
remain after you have announced intention to leave
Thank You and Good Luck
