Heading into my second interview for a hospital admin role next week -they've hinted salary discussions are on the table. After four years of juggling multiple admin responsibilities under a tight budget, I need to get this right. I'm aiming for a 20% raise, bringing me to about $75k, which reflects my experience & the industry standard in our area. What are the must-ask questions or points I should bring up to get the best offer?

2. Discuss total compensation (bonuses, healthcare, etc.).
3. Highlight your experience and career growth.
4. Inquire about work-life balance and benefits.
5. Be ready to negotiate confidently if needed. Stand firm on $75k!
