I’m interviewing, and the pay gaps are huge - like $30k+ difference for the same title. I’m having a hard time determining my worth with all these fluctuations, and would like to negotiate without feeling like I’m guessing. Any tips?

Do the market research on your own, compare the companies and industries, etc. Also ask Chat or Gemini.

30K is not that huge, I’ve seen over 100 lol

In general they’ll be targeting the 25-50th percentile of the range for hiring. You can try to negotiate up to 75th if you’re good. Above that is difficult, at that point might as well bump you up a level.

Do your research so you know what a fair salary is for your area. I always check online and sometimes ask in these groups if I’m unsure. That way, you’ll know exactly what a reasonable amount to ask for is.

The market is messy right now, and titles mean almost nothing. I've started using offers as data points. That way, you’re not guessing, you’re collecting information. And it’s okay to take time to process that before responding.

Hi everyone my name is Yusuf I really need a job I don't mind anyone no matter its I will do it
