SA negotiating FT sans leverage
Since there have been a lot of posts lately on negotiations of salaries, sign-on bonuses, etc., and most recommendations include leveraging other offers you have, I was wondering how it's possible to negotiate a full-time salary when, as a SA, you're offered the FT position. If you say you've got other offers, that means you've been shopping around during your internship... what other reasons for negotiating can you give?
Is this a silly question, or can no one clarify this?
We're Italian, "WACC" means something else to us.
This is a really silly question. An analyst is a commodity- get used to it.
10 Weeks of Experience = 0 negotiating leverage
Just happily accept anything (if) they offer you.
Salary negotiations after receiving FT offer (Originally Posted: 12/04/2008)
I recently was offered a FT position for a firm. The base is relatively low, and I want to try negotiating for a higher base salary (about 10% more).
Are there any suggestions on how to go about doing this the right and effective way?
Thanks.
Let me start by saying you are HIGHLY unlikely to get any type of raise at the entry level, you simply aren't that valuable to the firm yet (I mean that in a general sense).
In my experience, the only way friends have been able to get a raise is to: A) find a JUSTIFIABLE reason - i.e. pay is too low to live in the region and B) show that you have significantly higher offers from other firms.
In my case, I had several offers and none of the companies would negotiate AT ALL. Especially in this environment, you Arne't likely to find much success negotiating.
Good luck. Negotiating in THIS job market? Any company has the upper hand right now. They are getting candidates cheap.
The best way that I've found to do it - and it's actually worked - is to just ask if the base salary is negotiable. That way you're not demanding anything, they know what you are getting at, and it gives them an easy opportunity to say no (which they like if they are so inclined).
