I have >20 years of experience and my comp is absolutely >95% of inbound offers. So yes, I definitely want to not waste time with those and instead focus on the 5%.
- d23 5y agoThat's great, and I'm in a similar situation myself. But your intro mentioned this being early career advice, which could mislead people into making pretty big negotiation mistakes.
- pojzon 5y agoI would consider that a good advice for anyone who is half-decent in current market. Good Engineers are at the value of gold. Can save you a lot of money down the road. I have like 8y of experience and salary requirement is the first thing I negotiate. Easy 30-50% jump each time in past few years.
- teawrecks 5y agoDefinitely negotiate, but the first rule of negotiation is to never be the first to give a number. And the 2nd rule is to always have multiple options that you'd consider.
