EP 169. Mastering Salary Negotiation from Your First Contact

Jonathan Flaks / John Gates Season 4 Episode 31

In this episode, we counter the common myth that salary negotiation starts when you receive a job offer. In reality, the negotiation process begins much earlier, right from the initial contact with a company. By understanding the nuances and interviewing tips to strategically answer screening questions, you can position yourself for a better job offer!

Our guest, John Gates is the founder of Salary Coach and the author of Act Your Wage, an international best-selling book on pay negotiation. John has served as Head of Global Recruiting for Fortune 500 companies, where he trained hundreds of recruiters to negotiate pay on behalf of corporations. John has since created a low-risk approach for C-suite executives and senior leaders to negotiate 10-20% more in compensation, even in challenging job markets.
