Ctc discussion
Hello All,
I'm looking for a suggestion. Recently i got a job invitation call from a HR and they collected basic details like ctc, expected ctc, I told that I'm expecting 10LPA and they are ok with that and they scheduled interview and I cleared the technical & Managerial interview rounds. Now my HR discussion is scheduled next week regarding compensation, but I heard from few guys from the same company that the budget for the position is more than what I've asked(10LPA). Can someone pls suggest how can I ask for more ctc like 13 or 14LPA because before interview I told that my expectation is 10LPA.
(I have around 3 years of exp in Virtualization and my current ctc is 4.6 and holding an offer of 8.5lpa)
Pls don't take this in negative way, need genuine suggestion pls!!!.
In the HR discussion, mention you’ve learned the budget is higher. Politely ask if there's room to adjust your offer to 13-14 LPA. Be confident, yet flexible.
Can I say like this " i have enquired with my colleagues who are in same domain and they said market standard would be 13_14LPA".will this workout?
Probably the hr round will be done by a different person than the first hr that asked you about salary expectations. So it won't be a problem. And in a salary negotiation the party that says the number first is always at a disadvantage(They can't make you disclose your salary or your standing offers). So always make them say there budget first. Then shoot for the higher end of that range.
And prepare well for the salary negotiable. Like phrase to avoid disclosing your salary or offers. What phrases can be used to negotiate for the higher range in the budget. And what all are your selling points. YouTube and GPT are your best friends for this.
