63 Salary Negotiation Resources

Have you ever been taken advantage of during a salary negotiation? Have HR personnel ever tried to pin you down on a number early during the process? What if it is a dream job? The truth is, hiring managers are expecting you to negotiate. Learn how.

When developing the concept of SalaryScout, a site that allows users to anonymously exchange compensation data, I researched hundreds sources related to salary and salary negotiation. Rather than keeping these hidden away in my own personal bookmarks, I thought I would post them so that everyone can benefit. Enjoy!

After looking at many of these, I came to the conclusion that there probably isn’t a single best way to conduct negotiations. It depends a lot on the job and the person you are negotiating with. Many of these are good, however, others aren’t so good. Regardless, I think this list is a great starting point for learning how to negotiate. Don’t forget to signup at SalaryScout and find out how much others are making.
