      This quick guide will give you step-by-step instructions to negotiate for a higher salary.

      1. Understand WHY you are negotiating

Your employer has spent a lot of time and money to get to this point and they are enthusiastic about you joining the team and doing the job. They also expect you to negotiate. Yes, even if this is your first job.
