In my 15 years as a software developer, I always assumed that the salary in the job advert, or the range the recruitment agent gave me, was all I could get. And when I did try to negotiate my salary, I inevitably made all the usual mistakes: I low-balled my salary expectations; I spoke first; I accepted their "this is all the budget we have" excuses; and so on.My efforts were clumsy at best and it must have cost me tens of thousands until I finally went to work for myself and learnt how to negotiate. I really wish I'd had this book to help me!
There are a few amazing nuggets. I can't in good conscience give it 3 since 90% of the book is fluff. But that 10% he really nails it. I should have bought the kindle version for $7.99 versus the $20.00 paperback as the digital version is appropriately priced. Learned my lesson, with unknown authors I need to Kindle it.
This was a great help when I was at a crossroad in my professional career, it helped me choose between one offer and the other. Josh really finds a way to break down the process and give you the tools you need to reach further up in this dreaded situations.
This book was instrumental in my salary negotiations for my current job. Without the easy to follow guide, I wouldn't have negotiated at all, but, thanks to this book, I'm now several thousand dollars a year richer.
Very early on in my career, a mentor taught me that salary is more than just a check, and went on to show me how EVERYTHING related to compensation - bonuses, insurance dollars, raises, retirement contributions, etc - are calculated as a percentage of salary. So if you're leaving salary dollars on the table, you're ALSO leaving bonus money, insurance money, retirement money, etc on the table, as well!That makes it super-important to get what you're worth when it's time to get paid, and this book is invaluable for doing just that. It walks you through simple, broken-down steps to get paid the most you can. I never thought I'd say this, but with the help of this book, salary negotiation really can be easy and simple!
The book is written in a friendly and engaging way, tackling a tough subject with enthusiasm. Each chapter is full of useful advice which makes this more of a reference book I will definitely come back to time and again. It is the kind of advice that is applicable at every stage of your career and gives a great insight into what negotiating is like on the 'other side' - from the viewpoint of the recruiter or hiring manager. I think one of the most valuable parts of the book is the chapter around market value and how to consider what your skillset is worth. Overall a very concise and actionable read.
I applied Josh's salary negotiation method and got a better job where I'm paid what I'm worth. In less than one week, I interviewed for and negotiated a new job with a base salary increase of $15,000!!!! This is a no-brainer-must-read, even if not taking a new job, applicable for current salary/raise. I have always counter-offered and negotiated some when taking a new position, but had no idea how much I was missing out on until I applied Josh's simple guidelines for negotiation! Essentially a $7.99 investment with a $15k/year return! Thanks!!!
So practical, this book takes the guess work out of salary negotiation whether you are ready for a raise, changing jobs or on the hunt. This is a must-read for career-minded people. Josh will lead you through a step-by-step process to negotiate a better salary. Well worth the price of the book!
