Why does every hr in salary discussion say your expectation is not in our budget?

And what to say when they say this? Should we lower our hands expectation or negotiate after they release offer?

If market standard is same what you are asking and not something out of the box then no need to negotiate. Wait for the offer.

It's their strategy..you should stick to your expectations

Say that's great, but I'm hoping for something alone the lines x+y based on market data. Is there any wiggle room at all? But I would known when to fold - if it's not a HUGE decline from what you were expecting, go for it. They have to negotiate on their end too

Same here. The HR mentioned approved CTC is X but I was expecting X+2. It comes upto 50% hike on my current CTC . I did not agree for X and HR said they will check with the management. Now let's see..

Sur bro..

Best suggestion is to showcase your talents more and more till they get impressed.

Well technical team decides whether u clear the interview or not. I am not sure if they mention u should give this CTC max in their feedback. Then comes ur hiring managers he asks about ur strength and weaknesses and decide ur CTC. 🤣

Maybe you're just asking for too much?

Maybe your expectations aren't realistic?

Mid-level here. Has anyone gotten their firm to approve their doing work at a deep discount and, if so, what strategies did you use? A potential client approached me directly about a small matter (~20 to 30 hr amicus brief). The potential client (gov’t) pays a standard rate ~40% lower than mine, but I want to take on the project because it would be a good professional opportunity (e.g., high profile case & client) and of course the lower rate won’t affect my comp directly. 🤷‍♀️ All advice welcome!

Not sure who else in the company is involved/aware - he's my only point of contact. I'm 6 mths into the job and enjoy it, but this is a major red flag. Should I find a new job or hold my ground and see what happens?

I am wondering if I can see what other brands say to influencers that they reject? In the program we use we either approve them or reject them. Once they are rejected they get an email saying that they are. I have tried googling a good nice way to reject an influencer but all I get is how an influencer should reject a brand. Not a brand rejecting an influencer. We don’t want to be rude & would like to keep the door open for future collabs if they meet our standards in the future.
