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 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?

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

when you cannot describe what you really want to do. I am over 50 and have no ideal what I want to do. I know that I do not want a boring job in an office. I enjoy making greeting cards, photography and I have thought about going to school for hair stylist, massage, driving a 18 wheeler, teacher, real estate lic., plumber. I need soemthing exciting.
I want something that I can make good money and not work 60 and 80 hours a week. I know there is not an easy solution.

thanks thanks thanks! take care!

I work in an emergency room as a healthcare tech. I am currently a senior in college majoring in sociology. I am still under orientation with my 90 day mark approaching december 28 of 06. My rate of pay is 11.38 and I work nights 3 days, 12 hr shifts which give me a 1.75 shift differential, and an extra dollar for weekends which I work both days every weekend. I make about 1.50 more than my other co-workers. However,I am a single parent of three and still dependant on the government to feed my family. I would like to be self suffient for my family and I need as much money as I can get. How can I communicate my needs of more money to my employer as a single parent, good worker? When should I expect a raise working in such an enviornement,(after all I am assisting in saving someone's life at times). When I graduate should I ask for more money. As a CNA how do you get more education that increses your worth w/o becomin a nurse? Please address all questions.

I work 12 hr nights, how can I explain to people who call during my sleep hours that I work nights and need my rest. What kind of a message do tyou leave on the phone so they quit calling and waking me up. I only got two hrs of sleep b/c of the phone ringing yesterday. I do not turn off the ringer b/c I have kids who are out of the house during the day, or in case of emergencies. I had 26 new messages yesterday and each time the phone woke me up.

Company A: I've been working here for 6yrs, hourly wage, NO benefits, but good company pension plan, 3 weeks paid vacation. My work hrs are from 10:30hrs-19:00hrs (no traffic), travel time is 25 minutes (no bridges to cross). My job is basically call taker and a lot of data entry. I get along with my co-workers and my boss & I get along well, maybe because we have the same b-day.


Company B: A week ago, offered me a position with benefits (no pension plan) and a promise for the same hourly wage and an increase after 3 months, no annual raise but a promise for bonus base on my productivity, no guarantee. My hours will be from 8am-430pm, travel time is 30-40min (1 bridge to cross), my duties would be the same, don't know about my co-workers yet, but the supervisor & I used to work together 8 yrs ago.

I have worked for 5 years at my career and the last two have included extra duties which include team leadership and management. Money is not good. I am only getting a "bonus" which works out to be 1.3% of my annual salary. I have worked so hard that I feel myself working into an early grave. I have tried to get out of it, but my boss won't let me go. I just don't know what to do???
