What are your must haves when interviewing for a new position? I've heard some people ask to renegotiate their title every year and hadn't even considered that. Curious what else I've missed out on.

Renegotiate title every year? You’d run out of titles pretty quickly, no? “Empress of Copy?"

Salary bump, signing bonus, extra vacation time, technology i want (computers, home laptop/monitor), bank of funds for conference attendance/training. Never asked for all at once but have asked for each of these things (always with salary increase) and gotten them. Admittedly been 6 years since I last switched jobs, but hope it helps.

But to elaborate more on your original question: the most important thing is salary. You’ll never accumulate wealth by relying on raises of 5% or bonuses. You want to get your pay as high as you can

I think that isn’t the best way to do it. Instead, when negotiating your salary ask for consideration for a raise, title bump in 6 months/1 year as a sort of rider to the offer. When
Title renegotiation comes up, rinse and repeat

When you run into the ceiling for the gig, get an extra week of PTO. Also, I’ve negotiated having a Mac (I’m a writer) and will always insist on that.

I just started with a company as an HR Generalist. Within the 3 weeks of being there, my boss’s boss left, and today I found out my boss gave notice.

I am now actively looking but how do I explain to other employers why I am actively looking and what do I put on my resume? I have never had to deal with this before.

Long post alert; I have been interviewing with a b4 for a senior con role since Mar end. Cleared all the rounds including case study and got strong rating as well as good feedback. Fast forward to last week, the talent POC calls me up and informs that she has asked the business if the position is still open, because now they just need the business approval to roll out the offer. I immediately felt demotivated as to ‘why now’ after all rounds have been cleared (continued in the comment below)
