Is negotiating salary more difficult when you don’t speak the native language? I’m thinking of applying to an international job posting but I worry that I won’t be considered

Everything is more difficult when you don't speak the native language. That said, I wouldn't let that keep you from applying. Go for it. You'll be lucky to run into this problem, and for your sake, I hope you do.

Does the job have a specific language requirement? If you meet it, then apply. Obviously there may be a benefit if you speak the native language but they’re going to operate using the specified language(s) in the post.

Hi All! Looking for some advice. I am a manager a country club but I do everything. I’m in charge of outside events and member events, in charge of the front of house staff, scheduling, ordering and membership sales for the club. I feel I am very underpaid at $45k. I do get commission but it’s very low ($10k give or take for the year). I work 6/7 days a week sometimes 10+ hrs/day. I’ve been researching salaries to be able to negotiate higher pay. I want to ask for $60k-is this reasonable?

My husband just received a job offer on an opportunity he is really excited about. It would be great for his career and they are giving the 15% jump in base he asked for, however they won’t share what the target bonus amount would be. It’s an executive director position, so I would assume it’s a decent target bonus, but without that in writing it could honestly be a gift basket at the end of the year. Is it a red flag for them to not share this? His total comp could be less at this new job…
