I was offered a position and it’s what I really want. However, I want to negotiate the salary. I believe I’m in a good position to do so because the person that offered the position will be my boss and she really wants me to join the team. I also bring value and experience to the…

Contract to hire...not so much I was hired about 8 months ago for what seemed to be a contract-to-hire position. I was assured that it was more of a formality and everything seemed pretty positive. I told the company my concerns about leaving my permanent, full-time position for…

What is.. Your standard when giving notice to your company after you decide to leave your job. I know that 2 weeks is what is "supposed" to be, but have you given less? or have you given more?
