Salary negotiating is an important topic that must be addressed prior to your initial interview with a prospective employer. Knowing your bottom rate http://www.cheapmenssuperstarsale.com/ , and being able to live with it [or on it?] is an important thing for candidates to uncover before the first interview. Why then do so many of us make the tactical mistake and go to the interview unprepared?
One of the first mistakes ? a real killer ? is to tip your hand too early in the interview process on what you will accept for a salary. Many interviewers will attempt to screen you out by finding out what your ballpark figure is. To mention that amount too early in the interview process can and will lock you in to a figure you might not be happy with later. Try changing your salary requirements after an offer has been made and you will come across looking flakey or greedy.
You must have a salary range in mind before going on the first interview? you then have to be determined not to reveal it in that interview or you just might find yourself on the outside looking in. In other words, you will be screened out of the selection process before you can show the employer [the person with hiring authority, not the Human Resources (HR) rep.] what you can do for them.
If you are asked on the first interview what your salary requirements are you must stall the interviewer. Chances are the first interview is with an HR rep who is trained to weed people out Cheap Adidas Superstar Shoes , oftentimes the salary requirement being one of the ?weeds? the rep looks at to eliminate candidates. More than likely the rep is a ?no-nothing? regarding your job; he or she is tasked with presenting a certain group of candidates to the person with actual hiring authority [e.g., chief flight attendant, chief pilot Cheap Adidas Superstar White , operations manager, etc.] and knows [or cares] little about your background or what you can do for the company.
I have seen the best candidates get screened out prematurely because they tipped their hand too early in the interview process.
So, what do you do if someone insists on a salary figure? The best answer can be summed up along these lines: 'my salary requirements are based on the nature and scope of the position.? In other words Cheap Adidas Superstar Womens , the more difficult the job, the higher your salary requirements will be. If pressed further -- assuming the rep insists on uncovering your salary range -- you can always announce a figure closer to your bottom rate. For example, if you want 60K and sense that announcing that figure ahead of time will sink you Cheap Adidas Superstar Mens , you can tell them: 'my range starts in the upper 40s to mid 50s.? That way, you won't be screened out for what the H.R. rep might consider an excessive salary requirement. Most importantly, it will enable you to go to the all important second interview with the person who has real hiring authority.
