Career coach: Always negotiate salary when you get a job offer #Shorts

Career coach Jermaine Murray has a secret for you: You should always negotiate salary when you're offered a job. "You always want to ask for that first shot because they're expecting it," Murray says.

Facts! 💯 So glad that career coaches today are encouraging folks to negotiate their compensation package--especially women who tend to take the first offer.

Most places have a handful of people in mind for the job being offered. You can most certainly lose the offer if another candidate with equal qualifications doesn't negotiate or negotiates lower than you.

There is no negotiation with government jobs. It's posted and easily available. It is what the annual budget contract allows.

I've done this exact thing for normal jobs and I was always just told they couldn't continue business with me and told me to leave, that's why I do dangerous jobs just to get the bills paid, because if I'm crazy enough to do them and no one else is the job pay is already higher than anywhere else

A recruiter negotiated for me. Because she could feel that I was not going to accept the offer. And they added another 7000.

It's good to hear .i was beating myself that i negotiated till end, although i didn't get wat i wanted ( was unemployed for a 1 yr so was in need ) but im glad i did negotiate

Wrong. I've been a recruiter for 35 years and many companies I've recruited for would pull the offer if you initially indicated you'd take X and then you tried to do further negotiation. This is bad advice, especially in the tech industry.

Is it too late to ask for more if you've accepted thenoay offered?
