Business & Finance - 23 November 2006

I haven't actually been offered the job, but I want to be prepared for what might be a difficult situation if I am.

I've done the 1st and 2nd interviews and I should be hearing back today or early next week. When they asked me my salary requirements it looked as though they were hoping to pay me a less than I'd like. If I were to be offered the job, how would I go about negotiating?

I hate talking money, but I really think they should understand that it would be difficult for me to leave my current job for what would amount to a bit less money (although the base salary would be higher, my current job pays a lot in bonuses) considering that I am not changing industry or job type.

What could I do about this? I really do want this job but I have to be responsible about my finances too.

I haven't finished school, should I take the job?

I have lots of college hours, but haven't graduated, and actually I haven't attended for two semesters because of a death in the family and we had to move! I'm not working either, just a SAHM! My husband works full-time, but doesn't has his foot down w/that job. We're also not paying rent (living with mom) I got a job offer at a life insurance comp. as a sales manager trainee!! With a potential income of 60k+! That means we'd have to move again, he would have to find another job, find a baby sitter, and it would be lots of hassle! Which is a smarter move?

experian.. urgent help!?

Ive recently applied for credit,but the lenders advised that i have £14 against my name unpaid,which i cant understand.They adv its from a retail store-Now the only thing i can think of is that i have a store card with the arcadia group, which i have paid off in full a few months ago so the balance is now zero.Yet this £14 has been owed since dec 2004. Why has nobody contacted me before to advise i owe this money.I have recieved no letters, or phonecalls and now when i ask for credit i get refused even tho i was not made aware i owed anything..The lenders have adv to get a credit report from experian which i have sent off to do, but when this comes through i am not sure what to do next. Will i be able to pay off the £14, or will i not ever be able to get credit due to this reason.If its the latter then i am not happy, as i feel this is unfair. i pay off my bills reguarly and never miss payments? anyone else had similar situation. did u manage to settle the debt and get credit?

How do I answer questions or call from recruitment agency?

I'm recent graduate and have been looking for jobs lately. When I received calls from recruitment agencies, I was asked about myself, my work experience, my preferred working places, etc. Should I treat those questions as if in the telephone interview? Why are they asking those questions again since they already have my CV? How should I answer those questions in the best way?

Thanks for any advice

What is the cost of being cool?

If you really step back and take a look around the majority of people seem to be trying to keep up with the jones's by buying things for ego and to get attention....

Behind closed doors I bet most people are financial disasters, living paycheck to paycheck....etc

Is this you....? I once was caught up in this....!

Look around....its still going on....the houses...the cars...the clothes...the gadgets.....the toys....

Esacape already !!!!
