How to negotiate salary in an interview?

When you get a job offer from an organisation, the recruiter will provide you with the proposed salary package. While some organisations make the salary absolutely non-negotiable for the candidates, others keep the room for discussion. If a situation arises where you feel that the salary they are offering doesn’t align with your educational background, skills and experiences, then you can negotiate with the recruiter. Usually, candidates negotiate for a higher salary. So, since you also want to aim for a higher salary, you can use these tips: - You need to first understand your worth to the company. Before you quote a salary, it is important to consider your industry experience, geographical location, leadership experience, career level, educational level skills and certifications. - After you’ve collected all this data, you can do market research for the job position and see what the average salary for the position in the particular region is and then negotiate your salary. - Then prepare the talking points when the recruiter asks why you expect such a high salary. Make sure to add the above points and frame a proper answer. While quoting a salary make sure you don’t overestimate your worth or underestimate it.
