It is important to understand your worth and your potential before you go in for a job interview and discuss the salary with your prospective employer. It is also important that you have done a thorough background check and understood what the industry standard is before you start negotiating your salary package. Below listed are a few ways in which you can work towards building a salary package that works in your favour.
1. Sell yourself: It is important that you help the prospective employers understand why you are perfect for the job that they are interviewing for. Therefore it is important that you have and thorough understanding of the profile and craft your achievements to suit the job. When you do this, you are letting the employers know why you are ideal for the position.
2. Never disclose past salary: It is important that you not disclose your past salary and let the them evaluate you on your experience, skill sets, education and salary structure that is present in the company. When they ask you how much you expect, dodge the question and simply say that you expect a package that stands true with what is prevalent as an industry standard.
3. Wait: Do not get too excited and jump at the first offer you receive. Ask them to give you at least a couple of days to get back with an acceptance and in the meantime make sure you have a few interviews lined up so that you can understand what other companies may offer you so that you can pick right.
