[KITlist-Tech] From Sue: How to negotiate for the best salary

 

Hello Everyone,

I attended a jobseeker networking a few weeks ago that was hosted by CareerGenerations. I was impressed with one of the co-founders, Lisa Stotlar, and asked her if she would share some of her job tips with the KIT List community. The topic of salary negotiations is an important one that comes up often, and Lisa kindly put together this article.

Below is the first part of her article. You can read the full article on our KIT List blog at: www.KITlist.WordPress.com. I'm tracking the number of people who go to the full article so I can understand the importance of topics like this for future guest expert posts.

Thanks, everyone, and remember that it's important to ASK for what you need (and deserve!) or to know what other things you can negotiate for that can make a big difference for you!

Warmly,

Sue

Sue Connelly
KIT List Founder

"Salary Negotiation: An Art and a Science"
By Lisa Stotlar

Negotiating salaries and other benefits can be hard. It's hard because it involves risk. It's hard because you don't do it very often.

I love making this process easier for people. There are some tricks of the trade I've picked up that I hope can help demystify the whole thing for you. Let's start with why you might not do it. Fear. It is a powerful emotion and can be very useful in this situation. Distinguishing whether the fear you're feeling is a warning to prepare well for the negotiation or a sign to avoid the whole thing altogether is a good first step.

I've had lots of clients who negotiate successfully and some who don't. The difference is in the preparation, understanding/managing fear, and reading the employer's signals during the negotiation. I call all this the "Art and Science" of negotiating. The "Science" is the formal prep you do beforehand and the "Art" is the tap-dancing you will need to do in the moment because you never know what they'll throw at you in a conversation.

The "Science"

Books, web articles, and/or a good career counselor/coach can teach you the science of negotiating – the concrete how-to's, the math of it, the "if this happens, then do this" scenarios, i.e., all the "homework" you need to do to prepare for the negotiation as well as how to handle your fears. But if you don't work on your Art too, things can go badly, quickly.

The "Art"

Be sure and pay attention to the subtle clues you can collect during the whole interview process. By the time the offer arrives, you ideally will have a sense of whether the hiring manager/company is flexible, has some wiggle room in the budget, has rigid HR restrictions, really wants/needs you for the role, etc.

All these things give you an idea of how much you can ask for and how carefully you need to tread during the meeting. Remember to be fully present, listen carefully, and assess where the delicate balance/threshold is in the conversation. For example, if the person says his/her "hands are tied" and can't give you X, then you need to hear that and thank them for letting you know rather than push the issue. Trying to stay on some script (the Science) would be a bad move at this moment.

Here are some real examples of how these things can play out well when you mix Art and Science:

Real Stories as Examples

One of my clients was offered $20K more than the fair market value for her type of job. She didn't ask for more money, but she did negotiate other things. She had done her homework and was fully ready to negotiate, but the Art of this was to recognize that they were already going above and beyond for her and so it would have seemed odd/out of touch not to recognize that. She happily accepted the offer after a little back forth about the start date. She wanted a real vacation before starting and was able to get that.

Another was offered a position at a major university. It was a very good offer, but he was coming from the corporate world and had been used to negotiating fairly hard. I recommended that he soften his tune for this if he really wanted the job. Universities often have clear guidelines about what they will and won't offer. So gently asking if there was any flexibility in the salary was going to be a much better approach than assuming there was more money and simply throwing out a higher number. It turned out well. The hiring manager went back to HR to negotiate on my client's behalf. The manager and my client were in a sense already a team – bonding over this issue. He ended up with just $2K more, but the positive relationship with this manager was worth its weight in gold. And he did get some other perks including the ability to work from home fairly regularly and to attend at least 2 national conferences every year.

Another client was afraid to negotiate, but was determined to do it and really worked hard on preparing. But … in the end, I actually recommended that he not negotiate salary or a signing bonus. I could sense the offer was a bit precarious and he was desperate for the job. He wasn't able to fully recognize important nuances in conversation partly because English was his second language. Every time we role-played, he was very forceful in his language and tone. He ended up negotiating a later start date, plus 2 weeks off for a pre-planned vacation, and some tools he needed for the position like a laptop and cell phone. He's been in the job for about 6 months now and loves it. He feels he negotiated well and I agree.

Win-Win

If you decide you want to negotiate the salary, remember the whole exchange needs to be a Win-Win. You want to get something (Win), but they need something too (Win). So if for example, you're offered a salary of $100K and their range is $95-115K, then you need to ask for more than you ultimately want to end up with in order to bring their final offer amount up.

For example, let's say you want to bring the offer up by at least $5K – then nicely ask if there's some flexibility with the salary because you were "hoping to get something in the $110s, if possible." This will hopefully get you a final offer of $105-110K. That would be more money for you (Win), but still less money than the high end of their range (Win). You both get something out of the deal.

Note: If you had just said directly - I'd like $105K, the middle ground (Win-Win) would have yielded you about $103K. So know going into the discussion where you want that final number to be and then plan your strategy accordingly.

Lots of things to potentially ask for …

When thinking about negotiating, think about all the things you might want to negotiate for. By expanding your options, you will have the overall Win-Win results you want.

Consider these other key things to ask for in addition to salary …

[KITlist-Tech] Programmer - Internet security (San Francisco, CA)

 

Please direct your responses to: https://hire.jobvite.com/j?cj=oRou0fwt&s=Craigslist_Engineering<br /><br />
We are a small startup focused on detecting criminal behavior on the internet on behalf of our clients. We're growing extremely fast and need to hire across the board in order to scale the business. We're looking for sales engineers, programmers, sys ops, and data analysts. Reasons you would be interested in working for us include:<br /><br />

* Fascinating work. Welcome to the underbelly of the internet. We detect and expose malware and viruses, exploit kits, botnets, affiliate fraud, advertising fraud and illicit mobile apps, among other things. It's a golden age of internet criminality and we're at the forefront of the defense.<br /><br /> * Growth industry. Internet security is a global growth industry and the domain knowledge you acquire will be a marketable skill for decades to come. Security breaches are now front page news - Anthem, Home Depot, Sony. The market for security is projected to grow at $6 billion year over year.<br /><br /> * A company going somewhere. We have a proven business model - proven because we became profitable after our first year of existence and have grown profits every year since. Our client list reads like the hollywood A-list of tech and financial Fortune 50 companies.<br /><br /> * Unparalleled co-worker talent. I've been programming 20 years and am, if I may say so, a damn good programmer. But our CTO makes me look like a preschooler - he's far and away the best engineer I've ever met. If you want to work with the best, he's your man. Similarly, our CEO is an industry expert whose domain knowledge is unbelievably vast. Both sweat knowledge from all their pores and it's all yours if you're able to soak it up.<br /><br /> * Internal opportunity. We're small and growing. We barely have an org chart, no defined roles to box you into. You'll be given as much responsibility as you can handle and there is constantly more responsibility available for consumption because we're growing so fast. Want to design a new data center from the ground up? Or architect a big data back end to double our storage and analysis capabilities to triple figure terabytes? It's yours if you're capable.<br /><br /> * Flexibility. Prove yourself and pull your weight and we don't care where, when or how often you work. I spend a month each year working from the beach in Hawaii. You will undoubtedly have a large workload, but also the freedom to accomplish it under your own terms.<br /><br /> We're looking for employees who are capable of learning and figuring things out themselves. Mentorship is available, but you will often be on your own. We prize prior experience in our domain - internet security - as well as in the specific tasks - big data, java webapp programming, sales engineering, etc. However, we want talent above experience - if you can demonstrate the ability to learn, then we'll consider you. We are a java, spring, mysql, linux platform.<br /><br /> Apply at https://hire.jobvite.com/j?cj=oRou0fwt&s=Craigslist_Engineering<br /><br /> Key words: programmer programmers engineer engineers sys ops sysops devops techops systems operations systems engineers data analysts javascript java spring mysql linux systems administration backbone.js angularjs ember.js html css solr elastisearch c++ unix python ruby bash sysadmin hadoop cassandra puppet cobbler aws architect front end back end gce centors ubuntu mysql
