According to Salary.com's survey, only 37% of people always negotiate their salaries. Job seekers often devalue themselves because they think:
Negotiating a salary might cost me the job offer.
It will create an adversarial relationship with my employer.
The employer has the final say.
Here are a few tips that will help you negotiate your salary:
Never let any company give you an offer based on your last salary. Compensation should always be based on your skills.
Use websites like Levels.fyi, Glassdoor and Payscale to see what employees working in your position are getting paid. Research the salary trends in your industry.
Make the recruiter understand why you deserve what you are asking for.
If you get asked about your expected salary in an interview and you haven’t made up your mind, simply say, "I’ve not thought about it yet. Can we have a separate meeting to talk about salary and the final offer?"
Negotiate your salary and ask for what you believe you deserve because if you feel undervalued or underpaid, your performance will definitely be affected. #AWU #disability #jobs #salary

People often send their resumes to requestors without a second thought. As a result, they are subject to extensive damages somewhere down the road.
Before you send your resumes to unknown requestors, consider the following:
- First, do your due diligence.
- Second, reachout for advice.
Investigate the following data beforehand:
- Name of requestor company ID.
- Review format of the message.
- Verify the company address block.
- Examine the personal signature.
Applying this principle and/or process can turnaround things in your favor.

Listen carefully...
On one of the greatest stages of life, in some shape, form or fashion, we all are playing the game of baseball.
However, only one person can stand in the batter's box at a time. Right? That person is...YOU!
Strikes, Foul Balls, or Walking a person is part of the process in life.
Therefore, when people, places and unseen things in life throw you a fast ball, curve ball, knuckle ball, or a squiggly ball, don't lose faith.
Make sure you always swing to Hit-a-Homerun each time. Okay!!

Listen carefully...
Years ago in High School, a small group of Professionals came to our campus to present a lecture to the students.
After the presentation, while standing in the main office by the Principal's Office, one speaker cautiously said to the Principal...
"Satistically speaking sir...some of these kids won't even make it to second base in life."
Lesson Learned: "Avoid the statistics of failure based on what others may say. Live your best life now."

Principle Number 1. RESEARCH.
Every Air Traffic Control Pilot knows that he/she must check their landing coordinates before making a safe decline on the landing strip. Right?
Likewise, many people know to land a specific job, they must check the coordinates on their panel board of life. Such as your goals, initiatives and objectives. Right?
Keep these features in mind so you can land your next dream job without falling short on the runway of life. (See illustration below).

"Interview Tip"
When answering the job interview question about salary expectations, it’s important to approach it strategically. Here are some tips to consider:
Research: Before the interview, research the average salary for the position you’re applying for. Use resources like the disABLEDperson.com salary tool to understand the market rate.
Provide a Range: Instead of giving a single number, offer a salary range that reflects your research and experience. This shows that you are flexible and knowledgeable about industry standards.
Justify Your Worth: Be prepared to explain why you deserve the salary you’re asking for. Highlight your skills, experience, and any unique value you can bring to the role.
Consider Timing: If you’re early in the interview process, you might want to deflect the question to a later time. You could say something like, “I’d like to learn more about the role and its responsibilities before discussing salary.”
Be Prepared to Negotiate: Understand that the first number is often not the final number. Be ready to discuss and negotiate your salary respectfully.
Here’s an example of how you might answer the question:
“I’ve done some research on the typical salary range for this role in our industry and region, and based on my experience and the skills I bring to the table, I would expect a salary in the range of $X to $Y.
However, I’m flexible and open to discussing what you believe is a fair compensation for this position.”
Remember, it’s important to be honest and realistic with your salary expectations. #AWU #disability #Interview #salary
