We are so back!
Most of Big Tech is hiring again. Thousands of jobs.
And the market beyond big tech is also rebounding, with recruiters calling more often, more roles open, and more interview activity.
Good times ahead.

CEOs: We want A players!
Also CEOs: ...but we pay everyone like C players!
You don't really want A players 🙃

Happy National “tell your boss you quit to try to get them to counter with a pay raise to retain you, and if they don’t counter you just say ‘hahaha April Fools! I got you! I’m not actually quitting!’ and then you keep your job” Day to all those who celebrate.

Today is Equal Pay Day.
March 12 marks how far into the new year female workers have to keep working to make what their male counterparts made last year, also known as the gender pay gap.
Why is this still happening?
1. Systemic bias and the “caretaker tax”
2. No pay transparency

have you ever wondered how your salary stacks up?
why is compensation market data such a black box for employees?
what if you could compare your compensation to others in the market to know if you are within market?
excited for @GetFairComp @NolanChurch 👇

A candidate we gave an offer to came back asking for (more than) double the comp. (Actually, 2.5x 😅)
It didn’t turn me off. I was actually really impressed. Here’s why:
Speed: He got back to me in <24 hrs. Each time we talked it was hours, not days. The entire process took just a few days.
Follow Through: He gave me regular updates on when he’d follow up and then kept his word. We kept in touch multiple times a day via text. He never dragged his feet.
Reasoning: He did his research & gave a clear explanation of why he wanted 2.5x the comp. And it wasn’t about market data (you can find market data on anything 😅) — it was about impact he’d have on the company. ⚡️
Candidness: He openly shared comp he’d be giving up elsewhere, his current financial status, and his future family plan. Importantly, he shared things that would objectively not be helpful in a negotiation. (This built trust)
Excitement: He was super open that this was the only offer he was excited about and he wanted to be here. It felt like we were working on this problem together instead of on opposite sides.
Good Intentions: He never threatened with other offers (even though he had many other higher paying offers in hand). He wanted to be here and made that clear.
Put his money where his mouth was: He said he wanted to be in for the long haul — and then suggested a comp plan that was significantly weighted to later years. Few people do this & it had a massive impact.
Speed x2: He was not only quick responding w me, but also responded to every investor & teammate who messaged him (20+ ppl) saying he was very excited and just working through details. This made everyone excited about him.
The whole process built trust. 🤝
Speed + integrity + kindness + aggressive ask = A+ negotiation.
My thought during the process: “Damn, I need this person on my team!” 😂
If this is how he negotiates and treats people, he will be a huge asset for the team.
Ultimately, he didn’t get the 2.5x but we came to an agreement that made both of us super stoked to work together. 💥
TL/DR: It’s never WHAT you ask for, it’s HOW you do it. 💙
