SALARY NEGOTIATIONS

A lot goes on during a recruitment process and people typically think that it’s to just appear for interview that is the key thing.

Recruitment process consists of 4 stages namely; Sourcing, Interviewing, Assessing and
Hiring which comprise Offer, Negotiation and sign.

Most candidates prepare and practice for interview but forget to watch videos on salary negotiations.

During interview, when discussing pay, don’t get so desperate to accept anything. Dont under-value yourself. Sometimes. you find out that it is the HR professionals that offer to pay lesser than the budgeted amount.

At the end of the interview session, they come out with mixed feelings and blame everyone but themselves.

Take a case in point, i was interviewing an accountant and the following ensued:

Me: "What are you looking at in terms of pay”.

Candidate: “I know the company would have a salary band so anything around that is okay”.

Me: “Please state your expectation. What are you worth”.

Candidate: “My current is N235k.

Me: “Gross or net? I don’t need your current pay, please be explicit”

Meanwhile, we are wasting time discussing what he should have been unequivocal about

MD: “If you are earning N235k, i can touch it up a bit to N265k.

Candidate: “Can you make it up to N300k” (Me, in my head, “So you have a figure at hand and you have been roller-skating about this”).

MD: “ I can’t pay this. When you come in and i see what you can offer, i can increase to N300k.(Me, in my head, “ask him to state this in the offer letter, could be conditional or unconditional after 3-6 months”

Client’s HR: “Sir, let’s just offer him N265k and add recharge card N5k and fuelling N10k.

Candidate: “Sir, Let’s leave it at N265k and an increase later”.

Me: “Sir, the budget for the role is N300 - N350k, could we offer what we stated so that this exercise is not repeated within the next few months because of a difference of less than N75k. It is my field and i know after awhile, the candidate will continue the job search using your resources.

MD: “Let me think about this and i would call you later”.

Client’s HR: “Sir, he will accept our offer”

Dear candidate, please remember these tips:

1) Do your research and also ask the recruiting agency prior to the d-day.

2). Please watch videos and read about salary negotiation even if for just 10 minutes out of your data.

3). On the D- day, be confident and bold.

4). Choose a salary range. For example, if you want N350k/p.a ; a good range would be N320 -N400k

5) Before being assertive on your final offer, ask about other compensation options.

6). Remember to factor in ALL your expenses. Nobody knows this better than YOU.

7). Factor in your WORTH. Know your value and what you want to bring to the table.

Remember, confidence is a good trait that most employers value, knowing your worth is key to your pay.

Don’t accept the offer when you know you are discontented and unhappy about the pay.

Read this on LinkedIn days ago
Were you the same lady?
Or you text lifted it?

It's a nice piece though but salary negotiation is not for someone that desperately in need of a Job. We know yall HRs are always looking for cheap labour, Beckoning on the rate of applications received and unemployment. So as to get enough for the your organization.

Why did the HR not just mention the pay for the job since its structured company. Yall just like unnecessary back and forths.
