  • How to answer "What did you make at your last job?"
    Jun 24 2025
    How to Handle Salary History Questions in Job Interviews In this episode, we discuss the persistent question, 'What did you make at your last job?' despite it being banned in more than 20 states including California, New York, and Illinois. Learn why answering this question can be risky, especially for high-performing leaders who have been underpaid in the past. I provide three effective strategies to pivot away from sharing your previous salary and focus on your desired future compensation. Additionally, understand the concept of anchoring in negotiation and why your past pay doesn't define your future opportunities. For more detailed guidance, access our salary negotiation training on our website.

  • Does Negotiating Make You Look ‘Difficult’ — or Smart?
    Apr 26 2025

    We are addressing a question I hear all the time

    👉 “If I negotiate… will I come across as difficult?”

    Or worse…
    “Will they think I’m greedy? Aggressive? Hard to work with?”

    If that’s ever crossed your mind, trust me — you’re not alone.

    So,

    Does negotiating actually make you look difficult — or does it make you look smart?

    Let’s get into it.
