Tips for salary negotiation

You should already be thinking about your salary expectations before the interview, because at the end of an interview there is often a question regarding your salary expectations. There are a few stumbling blocks lurking here that you need to avoid if you want to get the position you applied for. Here it is of great advantage to carry out a salary comparison online in advance. As a rule, the gross annual salary is negotiated. It is therefore worth using a gross-net salary calculator to find out in advance what net salary will end up on your payslip. After all, your net salary is the amount you have to get by with. Anyone who uses our salary calculator to find out what average salary someone can expect in the same position will already have a good idea of what is realistic. After the salary comparison, the actual negotiation follows. The tricky part of salary negotiation is that you shouldn't set your desired salary too high, but you shouldn't ask for too little either. It is therefore helpful to know what salary level is usual - that is the aim of our online salary comparison. But what should you do if the company offers you a salary that is far below your expectations? There are two options for an 'indirect salary increase': You can always ask for additional benefits. For example, some companies cover part of the travel costs. It’s also worth asking about a performance-related bonus. Such a bonus can ultimately increase the annual salary significantly.
