Andrew LaCivita How do I create great techniques to increase my salary and compensation if you have been employed for over 2 1/2 years and achieving 75% more than your counter partners as Account Managers?

[@yogavidasaludable]

Great advice! Really useful and encouraging! Thank you!🙌

[@samueljones6605]

I literally cannot thank you enough for this!! A recruiter I was talking to kept asking me for a range, but because i'd seen this I just kept deferring and saying that they should give me an offer based on what they think I'm worth because I did my interviews well. Ended up getting an offer for 40K more than the high-end of the range I was actually expecting!!

[@andylacivita]

Yeah baby!!! Huge congrats 🎉🍾🎈🎊 Samuel!! So glad it helped!!

[@alexk5390]

This means only one thing - your expectations were low and they still low, otherwise they would say no, you are out of our budget.

I like Andrew’s videos but on this I’m not sure. Why not ask the recruiter what their budget is or range is? Otherwise why go for a job that’s isn’t going to pay at least the min you want. All depts have budgets wouldn’t you want to know early as possible to not waste time later on.

I remember a few years back, I was making 75k. I applied for a company, the recruiter asked for my desired salary. I told them $120k but it was negotiable later. I wasn't really looking for a new job and didn't really want to leave. $120k was the price to get me to leave but this seemed like a good opportunity. After the interview process, they gave me an offer of 80k. I immediately declined. The recruiter kept trying to convince me to take it, I kept declining. They came back with 90k and a 10k bonus, and Gave me 4 weeks of vacation instead of the original 2 weeks and 15% bonus instead of the original 10%. When I started, I found out that the budget for the brand new position ranged from $58k to $65k. I stayed for a year and went back to my old job. Old employer gave me 89k and kept my %15 bonus and 4 weeks vacation. I literally work about a quarter of what I was working when I left.

[@frankfromupstateny3796]

Everyone needs to negotiate upfront....before "just agreeing"...even for crappy jobs...one can get $1-2-3 bucks more an hour; driving jobs, laboring, etc. Just smile...reiterate your skills, training, with a smile. And..."always be shaking your head 'up-and-down' like a boss"....they'll treat you like a boss. When someone can't pay...walk away.

[@Spiritmourn]

Thank you for this video (and all your videos). I got an exciting offer today only to find out that it was £30k below what was originally discussed.

6 months ago your consultation landed me a senior position at the Dept of Urban Development in San Francisco. A Federal position. I'm white, though my qualifications were a perfect fit. My odds were Zero. Phone interview 1, They liked me. Phone interview 2+3 nailed it. Not only did I get the slot, I up'd my income GS11/7 start which in SF is $102k. I've outperformed and I'm worth GS12. You're the person to get the notepad out and clock that paper. Let's face it making money and getting undervalued is unjust. There needs to be some level of equanimity. Get paid what your worth, or leave. That's exactly what you did for me. You instill the confidence of a savvy corporate professional. Thank you sir.

We discussed 3 points that is expected from a Senior which are leading by example, analyzing our cases thoroughly, and being positive. I've shared with her how I've been executing all 3 areas in my current role. Her response was that she'll speak with the Director abt the next steps. Fingers crossed I'll get the promotion but when or if I fo get the promotion, what if I am not happy with the compensation? Am I able to use these techniques or is there actually a different way to approach this as it is a promotion rather than a new job? I look forward to hearing you.

I feel like when giving my resume to a place I'm interested in working, I don't think it's any of their business where I actually am currently working. Because they can use that information to call the place I work and get information about me that could be false. I have often wondered about keeping the company name off my resume if I'm still employed there and I wonder how the company I'm interested in working at would respond to that. I'm happy to prove that I'm currently employed by showing some information on pay stubs. But ultimately, these days, there isn't much friendly or honesty in business. So, I don't think companies should be allowed to discuss my business behind my back during negotiation.

[@andylacivita]

@@andylacivita Suuuuuuurrrrrrre. Why wouldn't they ? They will want a reference. Do you think dishonest talent acquisition personnel who will sell their mom's kidney to shave $0.05 off their companies bottom line will not take every opportunity to gather as much information as possible to use against said potential new hire ? They have no problem paying people a salary that will not put a roof over someone's head and they feel zero guilt. So why wouldn't they call their employer ? They don't need to actually know who I am working for. ALL they need to know is what my job duties and responsibilities are so they know where my experience is at. AND they need proof that what I'm claiming is true which can be proven through asking questions. And I would offer pay stubs with my companies name trimmed off. That should suffice and seems fair and reasonable. Recall: When the rich rob the poor it's called BUSINESS. When the poor fight back it's called violence.

I know the range for big law, and I know what number I will be happy with, and what number is my lowest (looking for a small firm). Finding jobs offer in Israel is by using 2 companies that provid job offer (you have to put a number), but you can't know which firm posted the job until they call. Now, its important to me to work certion hours, and also to get paid high (I am older then most new lawyer - I am 31).

I have a final interview tomorrow but today I've watch your video and I'm frozen to know that i shouldn't give any amount of my expected salary but I've already did i give numbers on my initial interview and up to my second interview now i wonder why they still called me to attend my final interview can you please give me a tip on how I'm going to answer tomorrow if they ask me again regarding my expected salary since i already gave it thank you!

What happens if they say i don't want to waste your time or ours. So what will you be be requiring

I made it through the interviews and now in preoffer. Unfortunately when the recruiter asked me of current salary and expected salary I pointed them out to him. I am not sure what happens if I quoted a higher value that they are willing to pay? Can they rescind the offer without letting me know? Is there a polite approach to write to them that will allow them to send their and then discuss. Its two days since I sent them the email with my current and expected salaries.

I just accepted a job that was going to pay me $22 the hour. I said my skills in the field are a bit rusty let's do $20. That was 2 weeks ago. I'm filling in this comment in order to update next year

What’s with the G1, G4, G9, H4 stuff ? 😅

[@vitalie96]

I've worked for one year in a company under a contract for basically the entry level salary and now they offered me an extension of the contract for two more years but mentioned nothing about the salary increase. I wonder what could this mean? Do they want to limit the possibility of raising the salary in the next two years, or do they like me but mentioned nothing about the salary hoping that I will not say anything about it?

[@andylacivita]

Just make your case for an increase!

[@sahinheenasli5276]

What if I already said it:( They offered me a bit more than I asked for in the beginning. Now I think what if I said less than they were planning. Because they offered me the job really so quickly. Was it because they really loved me or because my pay was lower to them.

[@andylacivita]

I'm not sure Laila because there are so many different factors. The great news is you got the job!

[@crownedbycurls]

What if your on a contract currently but they plan on hiring you perm? I took a 12000 pay cut relocating from DC to Atlanta. Was unemployed but have this contract to perm job now and they already told me they want to hire me on as perm either after my 3 month contract ends or before... but she told me they were capping this role around 40K, I was getting paid around $50k in dc... also I have a masters degree which should make me worth more by itself and my experience. I’m considering interviewing for jobs again and your negotiation tactic.. the negative is employers keep telling me that Atlanta cost of living is less that’s why they don’t want to pay me my DC salary... but apartments here cost almost the same as DC... and I’m not getting regular PTO accrued or holiday pay while I’m on contract with the holidays approaching... I feel like I got the short end of the stick and feel not valued

[@andylacivita]

Keep at it. You usually get what you settle for, so please settle for more! I would not buy that nonsense about the cost of living. There are cost differences throughout the US but they’re not significant between those cities. Keep interviewing until you find a company you love who values you!

[@PalmTreeTeachingTV]

Great tips - you're so experienced! Love your point about not offering a number upfront as well as all your video of course!! Deirdre. X

[@andylacivita]

Thank you so much Deirdre! Appreciate those kind remarks!

[@melburn74]

Crap, I broke rule number one...I discussed money the first interview...now an offer is pending and I need a higher starting salary. Housing is outrageous where the job is....how do I negotiate now??

[@andylacivita]

It's okay you can recover. As you move into the process you learn more about what the job really entails. Lean on that and demonstrate your value.

[@jamiejackson1780]

🙌🏾 You’re AWESOME!!!! THX

[@andylacivita]

Thanks for that Jamie!!

[@nala3038]

You are worth what you can get someone to pay you.

[@andylacivita]

Interesting thought.
