Emphasise your achievements, skills, and contributions to your current company. A confidence in your value is a must. Approach the negotiation with confidence. Believe in your worth and don’t be afraid to ask for what you deserve.
While knowing and aiming for your desired salary is important, be open to compromise. Additional perks or future opportunities can, at times, offset a slightly lower pay package.
That being said, know the minimum salary you’re willing to accept. If the offer is below this, be prepared to walk away.
Once you’ve reached an agreement, get the offer in writing to ensure there’s a clear understanding of the terms discussed.
