What are people's experiences around having requiters you submit a competing offer for them to negotiate against it?
I've had recruiters tell me they need to see a copy of an offer letter in order to match against it. I assume this is to minimize people lying about competing offers to squeeze a few extra percentage points out of their offer and to give the recruiter maximum negotiation leverage.
What response do you get if you just tell them "no"?
- rb2k_ 8y agoTell them that you signed an NDA and can't send them internal paperwork of a competitor. Talking about salary is one thing, but giving them the documents themselves is different.
- titanomachy 8y agoThey absolutely refused to move without a copy of the competing offer. I kept pushing but finally gave up and sent them a screenshot of the offer. They called me within 30 mins offering a 40% increase over their "best and final offer". This was at a top 5 tech company.
