Career Management Seminar

Salary Negotiation Techniques

Event Sponsor

Last Date for On-line registration: 08/09/2010 10:00pm Pacfic Time

Description:

The hard part is over: you knocked their socks off during the interview, and you are about to get an offer from a prospective employer.  Now what?
 
HR professionals believe that a typical candidate accepts an offer that is on average 10% to 15% lower than his/her optimal offer.  Why?  The truth is, most candidates do not place enough importance on salary negotiations, allowing the employers to have the upper hand in those matters
 
This seminar will focus on salary negotiation techniques in order to help project managers, i.e., you, receive the compensation packages you want and deserve.
  • Witness and critique mock salary negotiations.
  • Learn basic negotiation principles and concepts.
  • Learn how to talk to an HR manager.
  • Learn what to ask for and how to ask for it.
  • Then, learn how to ask for more.

Do not negotiate another compensation package until you attend this seminar!
