JOB SEARCH TIPS
NEGOTIATING
THE OFFER
Many
candidates for employment approach the subject of negotiating
an offer of employment with a fatalistic attitude. Because they
are unemployed and looking for work or do not feel they are at
a high enough level, they believe they cannot do any
negotiating.
In fact, quite
the contrary is true. Everyone, regardless of job level or employment
status, has some ability to negotiate.
Three critical
pieces of information are necessary for you to know when you enter
into the offer negotiations with any organization. They
are:
- You
must know what you need in an offer.
- You
must know what you want in an offer.
- You
should have at least a sense of what the company is willing
to offer.
