Whether it’s bargaining over the terms of a new job, or seeking better terms for a current job, some of the most important negotiations of our lives are job negotiations. Negotiable’s job negotiation materials work together to help you get ready and succeed. We describe these materials below. To access them, visit your Personal Dashboard page and select the Job Negotiation learning path that’s right for you (New Job, Current Job, or College Student).
Our Job Negotiation Quick Start gives you a speedy way to jumpstart your preparation. In under a half-hour, this resource will guide you through three critical steps, including gauging the market, identifying allies, and thinking about the process. For some people, this is all they want or need. Others go further, extending their preparation with the Job Negotiation Workbook.
Our Job Negotiation Workbook and accompanying videos address 10 critical good practices, helping you apply them to your situation. You’ll think about issues that could be on the table (including ones you might seek to add). You’ll anticipate smart trades that could benefit both sides. You’ll weigh the pros and cons of different opening moves. And you’ll craft an information strategy for what information to seek and share.
Our Job Negotiation Phrasebook presents a collection of possible phrases for different parts of a job negotiation conversation. Drawing on our examples, you’ll be guided to find words that could work for you.
Job negotiation roleplays provide a chance for hands-on practice. We offer advice for how you can roleplay your own situation in advance. We also offer a collection of hypothetical job negotiation scenarios, ranging from basic to advanced, giving you and a counterpart a chance to raise your self-awareness, hone your approach, and build your skills.
We provide special advice and versions of our materials for college students pursuing post-college job options. We discuss why it’s worth starting to build “job negotiation” as an important life-skill now, even if you don’t negotiate higher compensation right away.
