Negotiating salary...
Discussion
I'm looking for any advice (positiive or negative) on how negotiating a permanent position. Here's a little background without going into much information...
At least one permanent position is going to be advertised in the coming months. I will likely go for the position but I wanted to get some advice on how (if at all) I can use my situation to negotiate a salary. I expect that whatever salary I get will remain constant for some time..
I'm in an area where there are plenty of Engineers looking for work and also many different companies in similar line of work. Advertised salary appears to be quite stagnant and is on the lower side for Europe. Am I now more valuable to the company or do I run the risk of losing the job to someone else willing to do it for less ££££?
