Answer Preview
- Danielle was interviewing for a position, and the interviewer asked for her salary requirements. As Danielle was not expecting to hear that question, she mumbled for a minute before eventually saying $40,000.00, which is low for someone with her experience. Briefly describe one or more techniques that Danielle could have used to improve her response to the salary-expectations question. Also, how does a response to the salary expectations impact salary negotiations? Your response should be at least 75 words.
Before stating the salary that she wanted, Danielle could have first asked the interviewer the salary scale of the company, benefits and coverage offered for employees with her level of experience. If possible, she could have asked the interviewer to show physical data showing salary scale of employees in order to make a decision on the amount of salary to request. This response to salary scale of employees allows for salary negotiation in future since she could not ask the highest salary at first time. She could have asked something in between the range of salary by people with her experience thus in future she could ask for more according to her performance.
