Salary negotiation tips for the conversation I’m having with the recruiter? I have multiple offers, but they’re all in different industries and slightly different roles.

1. Check online sites (Glassdoor etc.)
2. Ask any contacts working for those companies regarding 💰 for the roles you are interested in. Ask about other perks / benefits such as paternity/maternity leave, investment in training, bonus structure, 401 K match.
3. Based on the research and your own skill set, think of the total compensation ($$ + benefits) that will make you happy to move into the new role.
4. Add 25% to your expectation and inform the recruiter.
5. Don’t give a range. Just give a single number and tell her that this is the number in your mind and mention that of course it can be negotiated given your interest in the role and the other benefits offered at the firm.
6. Negotiate and don’t accept anything below the number you determined for yourself in #3. Don’t cave.

Not sure if this has been asked before but what are your billable expectations, what year are you, and what size firm are you at?

I have been lurking on fishbowl for a bit and it seems that my billable expectations at my small firm are too high (1850). I don’t hit them but neither does anyone else including senior associates / partners. Anyways, my boss is using that as an excuse to not give me a raise - so any insight you could provide would be helpful!
