Manage episode 327614321 series 2882595
You may have had the experience of receiving emails or messages asking if you are interested in a position, and you don’t find the offer interesting or within your expected salary rate. How do you respond?
This question is often asked by many of my clients or listeners, and my answer is not as exciting or controversial - my answer is it depends. And in this episode, I will share why it depends and how communicating with the recruiters can help you decide whether you decline the offer or not. I will share how you can review your profile that affects the job roles offered to you. I will talk about the signs you need to look out for to avoid being scammed or spammed by people posing as recruiters. I will also share three business models or types of recruiters you need to be aware of, and how you can talk to these recruiters in order to make the offer more desirable or more in line with what you are looking for.

About me:
I started my career like many people do: in an entry level role making around $35K a year, was the first to arrive and last to leave, putting a 110% into my job…But it wasn’t enough.
I was consistently being passed up for promotions and realized I was being underpaid compared to my colleagues.
I knew that in order to get ahead in my career and be able to make the money I wanted… to support the lifestyle I wanted…something had to change.
So, I started investing in myself. I worked with a career coach, resume writer, read every career book that I could get my hands on, enrolled in career courses, and studied colleagues wo seemed to be crushing it in their careers. And after investing over $20,000 in resources, coaches, and books…and spending thousands of hours over five years…I realized that many of the common advice out there did NOT move the needle when it came to advancing your career!
Instead, I handpicked and carefully selected what worked to create my now signature program, 90-Day Job Offer, that is unlike anything that is out there. I wish a program like this existed when I was going through my career advancement and salary negotiations. If so, it would have been a fraction of the cost and saved me over four years of frustration of trial-and-error.
Since then, my clients have taken my ready-to-use resources to advance their careers in 90-days or less, and secured on average a 56% increase in salary (to date my clients have received $30,000 - $120,000 in additional earned income per year)!!
I help women in technology land fulfilling, high-paying jobs at a company that values and appreciates them. I’m on a mission to help women in tech collectively earn over a $1M in the next year.
