As you think about what the future holds, and closely analyze the pros and cons of the role, you may find that the urge to make an emotional decision fades. The excitement won’t go away, but the temptation to close your eyes, hold your nose, and do a bombshell at the deep end probably does — and that’s almost always a good thing.
After any job offer, but certainly if there are two or more offers to choose from, negotiation is crucial. Dr Dhaenens reminds you that you only get one “crack” when negotiating a new offer and you should feel confident doing so. The fact that this is the situation you are dreaming of does not mean that you should accept the terms of the bolus.
After the employer has responded to your areas of concern—which could be salary, annual leave, or other benefits—you need to accept, decline, or “make a very limited counteroffer.” In the case of a counter-offer, Dr. Dhaenens says you should only cover areas already identified: “It is not appropriate to raise new points for negotiation after the employer has responded. However, it is appropriate to mention salary – usually 10 per cent more than the target offer.” healthy”.
It almost goes without saying that if you get two offers, or if the job doesn’t sound quite right when you think about it, you’ll want to decline. It’s best to be honest, says Dr. Denins, considering you may encounter an employer or hiring manager again during your career travel. Even if it’s many years down the track, it’s important not to burn the proverbial bridges.
“When looking at shows it’s really important to think long-term. Cities, industries and other communities end up being smaller than we think, and we want to keep the conversation open for the future.
“You might say you enjoyed the opportunity and opportunity to meet the team, and appreciated the conversations, but your circumstances changed or you went with another offer. Depending on your discussions, it might make sense to wish them well or declare an openness to future opportunities.”
As to what job you should take on, it is entirely up to you. I would lean toward a dream job, but I fully understand the allure of a permanent role – as Dr. Denins told me, it’s very important to find “a role where you can thrive and contribute in the long run.” Whatever option you choose, I hope your next role will be enjoyable and professionally rewarding.
