To follow are some tips on how to ask, negotiate or get a pay
rise, raise, salary increase or job promotion:
-
Whatever approach you
choose to secure your next pay rise, you need to negotiate.
-
If you are
expecting a 10% pay rise, you should ask for an 18% rise & then
negotiate with your boss/ employer. If your job role is
critical, if your underpaid or if your role would be hard to fill if
you left, then you will be in a more powerful position to negotiate your
next pay rise.
-
It is best to avoid writing a pay rise/ raise letter or email, unless you have to.
-
Make weekly or monthly notes of all your
achievements... Read

Salary
Negotiation Example
Salary negotiation is not an easy task, as there is no standard method to do
so. So be prepared for salary negotiation.
Delay starting salary negotiation until the company makes you a job offer. It is best to negotiate a starting salary
before accepting a new job offer, as your chances of achieving a
higher starting salary are much better at this stage than after
accepting the offer or after starting the new job.

|
The
hidden job market This refers to jobs that are not
usually advertised through traditional methods such as through
newspaper ads. The hidden job market covers 60-80% of all jobs
available. Your chances of succeeding in finding the right job
are much higher when exploring the hidden job market, as there
is hardly any competition. Even jobs that are usually
advertised can be filled before being advertised, through cold
calling or networking.

|
Distance Education
Through distance education, correspondence or continuing education, you have
more opportunities for career advancement through development courses & degree programs. Most distance
education courses are
offered online and can be started almost anytime of the year.
