Ask Salary Early
Always find out the salary or salary range before the offer stage.
Ask directly if your expectations fall within their budget before proceeding.

State Your Salary Expectation
When asking about salary, state your expected number instead of asking the salary range.
This approach is more likely to get a clear answer about whether your expectations fit the role.

🏀 Shoot Your Shot - Shoutout to Yischa “Hi ladies! I happened upon an internal job opportunity with my company that would be a completely different path and in a moment of temporary insanity, decided to toss my hat in the ring. I created a resume (I grew into my current role from a very entry level position over the past 12 years) and hit submit. When I received a callback for an interview I panicked. That’s when I found your podcast. You guys have held my hand through 3 very nerve wracking interviews. You spoke to my imposter syndrome, helped me hone in on my strengths and gave me the confidence to ask for the job. I received a call with the offer today. Thank you both, for helping to empower others and being a positive light in this world. I will absolutely recommend your podcast to others. Cheers!”
