SALARY NEGOTIATION FOR ENTRY LEVEL CAREER?

I am starting to be entering the pursuit margin in May…
I was offering the pursuit with the income of $40,000…
I feel as if this income is WAY next my potential..
I stand in majored in commercial operation with the financial thoroughness AND in economics.
I am the boss of the economics bar AND the cabinet member of the inhabitant honors society..
I did the little investigate upon payscale as well as they pronounced which my normal value is $52,000… I would cite $55,000 since I would need to relocate

How should I negotiate? What income should I target for? Am I asking for as well much??

and the on all sides is for t.rowe price.. for investment operations

I know an Ivy League econ grad who got $50,000, so I think around 50,000 is fair.

Okay. You say you have a great one-two punch major. Assuming you are entering the market for the first time consider:

-you have no prior corporate experience that proves your skills in the market

-we are in an economic market that has rising unemployment (more competition for the same job) and fewer jobs (less opportunity)

-Bear Stearns employees will soon be flooding the market

If you are at the top 5% of your academic class from a school that has favorable ties to Price, then you are being offered too little. If Price is unfamiliar with the rigors of your academic career, they may be saying: “We like this person, but don’t know a lot about them, let’s give them a shot.” There are 1000’s of varations in between.

If this is the place you want, then carefully consider if this is a first step in your career ladder with a reputible company, or if you are willing to continue to look for a better solution.

Good luck!
