Justify Your Request
If you think you are the best possible candidate for a particular job then you can surely back up your demand by talking the possible things that you can do once you are on board. So bank on your negotiation skills and tell about the positive aspects that you can add to the company’s bottom line, what efforts have you done for your previous employer, what additional responsibilities you can take, and how your hiring will be an overall benefit for the company.
Be Brutally Honest With Yourself
The best way to do this is to evaluate your own qualifications. Set a percentage barrier and evaluate whether you deserve more money or not. If in case you don’t match the percentage, get on the side of not pushing for a higher salary and instead prove yourself once in the job.
But if you do meet the percent threshold, go for it. Because the fewer strong candidates a company has, the more likely they are to give freedom to the hiring manager.
