Hey Isaac,


At some point in our careers, we are faced with challenging career choices. One of them is when you are not satisfied with a job offer, and you feel the need to bargain. While every situation is unique, specific general rules always apply. Here are a few rules to guide you in your discussion.

  1. Convince them you deserve what you are asking

Your employer ought to trust that you are worth the offer you want. Do not let the proposal speak for itself; instead, tell a story that goes with it. Let's say you want a salary raise. Do not just state the desire; explain with precision why you deserve it. Avoid suggesting that you are more valuable than the rest as this might make you seem arrogant.
