Are there still veteran advisors that expect their noobs to smile and dial? I get activity drives results but being active for the sake of being active won’t help the noob bring in business

Im not a veteran but I think this can be useful. Most noobs are straight out of school and probably aren’t familiar let alone comfortable with rejection. I’m sure there are alternatives but I think getting them used asking for business in a direct manner is very helpful for development

Hi guys,

I need genuine suggestions. I was holding offer from IBM and Wipro & now have got a good offer from a mid size organization.
I want to negotiate with IBM and Wipro & join any of these two.

Do these companies negotiate? When & how should I start negotiation with them ?

I would like to talk professionally so that they provide me a matching CTC or in case, they can't at least they don't block me for future openings.

Please suggest, if anyone can share their experiences.
