How would you respond when a recruiter asks for a remote role that's supposedly for 12 months worth possible extension (Product Developer - Imagery Design): "... what is your expected rate/yearly salary as a w-2 employee and or hourly rate on corp-to-corp?"

Tell them what you made in your last role (how much your rate adds up to on an annual basis if your last job was also contract) and then highball them, saying:

“Based on the the fact that in my last job I made X (or X/hr), which adds up to $$$$$$ annually, for this position with more responsibility, I’d target [figure that’s at least 5-10% more than what you’re making now]. Does that sound reasonable for the team given the budget for this role?”

That way, you’re seen as quoting a figure out of concern for the team, not for yourself. I think it’s considered endearing. Not sure though.

Perfect! Thanks 👍

For a contract role I advise to negotiate a salary/hourly rate that is slightly above the standard to make up for potential loss after the 1 year in case it doesn’t extend. For example: a regular full time role would pay 80K then the contract role should pay 90-100K.

Hourly should be 20-40% higher

Hi 👋🏻 Would love some support here - looking to build out a bonus structure for a Sales Engagement Mgr role - it isn't a typical sales role - this person will be closing deals but not necessarily securing leads. If they will be scoring leads, it will be organic via conferences, partnerships. Of course, we want to encourage and incentivize this person. Potentially giving then an extra 20-50k bonus potential. How do I build this out? Any suggestions or examples would be super helpful. Thank you!!
