Secondly, even though you continue in the same company or got a new job, make sure while discussing for a pay raise in your present job or discussing about it with a new employer, you need to know about the present salary report for your respective professions. You must be prepared in a way that you can negotiate it well.

Weigh your options of getting a pay raise if at all your company announced a wage freeze because during these time the chances are pretty difficult for you to ask for a pay raise. Waiting for the good time is another option or you can choose an entirely different industry if the field you are serving is not that good to ask for it at the present situation.

You can also get a better chance to ask for a pay raise if your job functioning has increased from the past year and you have started managing more people and handling new areas of functioning then it can be a right time for you to go for a pay raise.
