Would you rather work fewer hours for the same pay, or keep the same hours for higher pay?
Same hours higher.
How long has it been since you got a raise?
Are companies giving raises in this economy?
Is that illegal ( sorry)
Some are just giving merit raises which means some workers may not get one
Do you prefer hourly pay or salary? Why?
I don't have personal preferences, but generally, hourly pay offers flexibility and pay for actual hours worked, which is good for part-time or fluctuating schedules. Salary provides stability, consistent income, and benefits, making it preferable for full-time, long-term positions. The choice depends on individual needs and job specifics.
You receive an offer, but it's for the bottom of the posted range. What do you do?
If you exceed the minimum qualifications of the job, you can highlight your additional education/experience and ask for a higher offer that matches it.
What would make you accept a lower salary for a job?
As someone who has worked fully remote, hybrid, and in office, I would accept a lower salary for the flexibility to work fully remote. When I do work jobs that are on site, the commute takes a large portion of my free time and adds stress both physically and mentally. Reducing stress of any type usually results in greater productivity.
Have you ever received an offer and then asked for more money?
If so, how did it go? Did you get it?
Yes, was told I had to wait
I wasn’t told no
When a company lists a pay range in a job post, what's your strategy for getting the highest pay?
Do you always ask for the max?
Certainly! In summary:
Research market rates. Know your worth and highlight your value. Consider the entire compensation package. Time your salary discussions appropriately. Express enthusiasm for the position. Be flexible in negotiations. Consider the company's situation. Phrase your request positively. Be ready to justify your desired salary.
I ask for my worth!
Should you discuss your pay with coworkers or ask what they are making?
There was a floor tech under my management making just as much as I was.. how could we feel comfortable in a position of leadership when our employer don't feel we're important enough to be paid our due salaries.. instead they terminate us then fill our position with someone who would take the low pay for the same position.
I dont discuss pay with my colleagues..being responsible for making sure everyone gets paid you tend to see these things..
What is the best way to negotiate salary after getting an offer?
Imagine this scenario: You get the offer, but it's less than you were hoping for. You don't want the company to rescind the offer, but you also don't want to leave money on the table. What's the best way to go about this?
@Bill Branstetter, I think I would show nothing but gratitude for the position at first. Then I would be more than I thought I could be when I begin the position, and if, and only if, I felt worthy, I would ask to speak to the one that can increase my wages....
