What to Know Before You Negotiate Salary During a Job Interview

When you land an interview for your dream job, don't mess it up by breaking some of the unspoken rules about negotiating your salary. In this video, career coach Robyn Feldberg gives several tips for what you should and shouldn't do when handling the tricky topic of compensation. For example, at the 00:18 mark she advises to give a wide salary range when asked early in the job process, and do your homework to find out what a fair range is before you go to an interview.
