How To Negotiate A Better Salary - The Inside Story
Congratulations! The hard work you have put into your job search
has paid off. You now have a job offer on the table and are
excited about the opportunities that this position presents.
There is just one thing that is troubling you: the offered
salary.
It is not unusual for the final part of the job search process
to involve salary negotiation, but this conversation can cause
even the most seasoned professionals to break into a sweat. A
basic understanding of the negotiation process and methods to
make salary negotiations go smoothly, though, will serve to both
alleviate your anxiety and improve your negotiating
effectiveness.
The key is to evaluate your qualifications and determine what
your skills are worth in the current employment market. Ideally,
you should begin research salary ranges before you even begin
the job search process. To determine your approximate market
worth, you can contact any one of the following sources:
--Professional associations or journals in your field
--Your state labor office
--U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics
--Career Centers
You may also conduct a search of salary ranges on the internet
to determine what companies are paying professionals with your
background. Keep in mind that salaries range depending on a
number of factors including years of professional experience,
education, industry, geographic location, number of employees,
and benefits. In order to get your estimated worth as accurate
as possible, you will need to consider these factors.
Once you have done your research, you can now enter the salary
negotiation process with a firm understanding of the value of
your skills in the marketplace
It's important to approach the negotiation in a professional
manner and for
both you and the employer to maintain the mutual
respect and trust that you have enjoyed throughout the hiring
process. After all, if the negotiation works out, you will be
working for the company, so don't burn any bridges before you
start orientation.
A couple of key tips:
--Do not personalize conflict. It is important to remember that
you and the employer have different interests and that
negotiation is a give-and-take process.
--Always be tactful and diplomatic.
--Persuade rather than coerce.
--Establish a common ground for agreement.
--Remain objective and focused on your priorities.
--Clearly describe the benefits of your proposal.
--Be persistent, but know when to let go and when to walk away.
Finally, be flexible in your negotiations. If you sense that an
employer is making you the best possible offer based on
available financial resources, considering negotiating for a
better benefits package as an alternative.
In conclusion, by taking a close look at your unique skills and
understanding their value in the current market, you are better
prepared to approaching salary negotiation as a mutually
beneficial discussion between you and the employer. Such an
attitude will not only allow you to maintain your
professionalism, but will greatly increase the likelihood that
your negotiations will be a success.
