Hey everybody, how's it going? My name is Mayuko, and welcome back to my channel where we talk about tech, career, and life.

大家好，最近怎麼樣？我叫 Mayuko，歡迎回到我的頻道，在這裡我們將討論技術、職業和生活。

未來簡單式

So today, again, we're going to talk about salary negotiations.

所以，今天我們還是要談談薪資談判。

現在進行式

So I posted a video recently about whether to negotiate your salary, and so today we're going to follow up and talk about how to exactly do that.

所以，我最近發佈了一個關於是否要談薪水的視頻，今天我們就來跟進一下，談談具體該怎麼做。

And this is from my conversation that I had with Sarah, who is the lead negotiator at Levels.FYI.

這是我與 Levels.FYI 首席談判代表莎拉的談話內容。

She was on Mayuko's Corner, my show about leading a life that feels more you in both your life and tech career.

她參加了我的節目 "Mayuko's Corner"，這檔節目講述瞭如何在生活和技術事業中過一種更適合自己的生活。

Sarah, again, just has so much great information from her time as a tech recruiter at Amazon, Facebook, and Google to talk about the do's and don'ts about how to negotiate a salary.

同樣，莎拉作為亞馬遜、Facebook 和谷歌的技術招聘人員，掌握了大量有用的資訊，她將為我們講述如何談薪。

So the topics covered today will be like, how do you answer, what are your salary expectations, and exactly what medium is best for having these conversations.

是以，今天要討論的話題包括：如何回答、對薪水的期望是什麼，以及什麼樣的媒體最適合進行這些對話。

再次感謝 Skillshare，現在讓我們開始吧。

Okay, next I want to talk more about how do you actually negotiate specifically.

好的，接下來我想談談如何進行具體的談判。

I have a lot of questions about this, but I guess the first question that I had, and I think this was one of the questions that I really was curious when we first started talking, was when a recruiter asks you what are your salary expectations, what's the best way, what's the golden answer, the do's and don'ts of how to respond to that question?

我有很多這方面的問題，但我想我的第一個問題是，當招聘人員問你對薪水的期望是多少時，最好的方式是什麼，黃金答案是什麼，如何回答這個問題？

Don't give them that number, don't give them that range, because like I said, the range is really large.

不要給他們這個數字，不要給他們這個範圍，因為就像我說的，範圍真的很大。

You don't know where you'll land in that compensation band, and so I would recommend push back on that recruiter and ask, okay, I'm just really curious, what is the compensation band for this position?

你不知道自己會在那個薪酬段落中處於什麼位置，所以我建議你反問招聘人員：好吧，我真的很好奇，這個職位的薪酬段落是什麼？

And you don't have to answer anything, it doesn't matter. If you don't know the answer, just let them know.

你不必回答任何問題，這並不重要。如果你不知道答案，就告訴他們。

Hey, I actually haven't put much thought into this, this is a really important thing, let me just take some time to think about this, and we can revisit this later.

嘿，其實我還沒怎麼考慮過這個問題，這個問題真的很重要，讓我花點時間考慮一下，我們以後再討論這個問題。

And then, you know, usually recruiters are pretty respectful of that.

然後，你知道，通常招聘人員都會很尊重你。

Another thing, too, is if you're in the state of Washington or California as a candidate, when you request for a compensation band, legally speaking, they have to share the minimum range with you.

還有一點，如果你是華盛頓州或加利福尼亞州的候選人，當你申請補償範圍時，從法律上講，他們必須與你共享最低範圍。

And recently with Denver, too, they passed a law where when they post a job description, they have to mention the minimum salary range, too.

最近，丹佛也通過了一項法律，規定在發佈職位描述時，也必須提及最低工資範圍。

So, the recruiter can push for it, the recruiter can ask that isn't anything in place that, you know, tell them that they can't ask, but ask the candidate to compensate.

是以，招聘人員可以提出要求，招聘人員可以詢問是否有任何規定告訴他們不能提出要求，但要求應聘者給予補償。

That's really good to know. I think in the past I recommended to you all, my viewers, that you should say, I expect to be compensated competitively, which is fine.

知道這一點真的很好。我想，過去我曾建議各位觀眾，你們應該說，我希望得到有競爭力的報酬，這很好。

But I think, instead, flipping the question to them, right? Because as soon as you put out a number out there, you basically might already be giving yourself away at a discount, which is great for the company.

但我認為，應該把問題轉給他們，對嗎？因為只要你把數字說出來，基本上你就已經在給自己打折了，這對公司來說是件好事。

Because then they're like, wow, we get someone of this caliber for this cheap? Great, let's just like keep on with their number, when in fact you're actually worth a lot more.

因為這樣他們就會想，哇，我們用這麼便宜的價格就得到了這麼好的人才？很好，那我們就繼續用他們的號碼吧，而實際上你的價值要高得多。

Exactly, and it's just like, you know, once you give a number, the recruiter will hold you to it.

沒錯，這就像，你知道，一旦你給了一個數字，招聘人員就會讓你遵守它。

So, you say $230K in total compensation, they will give you exactly that, like nothing more, nothing less. And let's say you start interviewing with another company and they give you $300K.

所以，如果你說總報酬是 23 萬美元，他們就會給你這個數，不多也不少。比方說，你去另一家公司面試，他們給你 30 萬美元。

You can't come back and be like, we're just kidding, like now I want $300K. You know, now the recruiter can say, wow, he came back, you know, and tell me the other competing offer, which means that he really, he or she really wants this position.

你不能回來說，我們只是開個玩笑，我現在想要 30 萬美元。你知道，現在招聘人員可以說，哇，他回來了，你知道，並告訴我其他競爭者的報價，這意味著他真的，他或她真的想要這個職位。

I'm not going to move the needle, and they will eventually cave and accept this offer. You know, from a really aggressive recruiter, they'll do that. And then another thing too, when they give you the range, don't say yes, don't say no, let's say you flip it back on them and say, hey, I'm just really curious, what is the compensation then for this position?

我不打算移動針，他們最終會屈服，接受這個報價。你知道，如果招聘人員真的很積極，他們就會這麼做。還有一點，當他們給你範圍時，不要說 "是"，也不要說 "不"，假設你反過來對他們說，嘿，我真的很好奇，這個職位的報酬是多少？

And let's say the recruiter tells you, all right, well, the range is $100K to $120K, how does that sound to you? Do you like this number? Avoid saying, yeah, no, that sounds great, or no, that's really low. Keep things a little bit more open-ended by saying, that's a really good start. So that you have room for yourself to negotiate later.

假設招聘人員告訴你，好吧，範圍是 10 萬至 12 萬美元，你覺得如何？你喜歡這個數字嗎？避免說 "是的，不，這聽起來不錯，或者不，這實在太低了"。保持開放的態度，說 "這是個很好的開始"。這樣，你以後就有了談判的餘地。

For sure, yeah. It's like, you leave it as lukewarm as possible for as long as possible is what I'm hearing.

當然，是的。就像我聽到的那樣，儘可能長時間地讓它保持溫熱。

Exactly. With negotiation, you want to be, you want to use really neutral verbiage here. You don't want to undershare, but you don't want to overshare at the same time.

沒錯。談判時，你要使用真正中性的措辭。你不想少說，但同時也不想多說。

So then at what point do you actually give a number, or who should be the first one to give a number then, I guess?

那麼，在什麼時候你才會真正給出一個數字，或者我猜，誰應該是第一個給出數字的人呢？

Yeah, so even at the very end, when the recruiter, you know, share with you the good news, like, all right, the team really loves you, they thought you do really well on ABCD, see a lot of growth potential in you, you know, we're ready to move on to the offer stage, what are you looking for?

是啊，所以即使到了最後，當招聘人員與你分享好消息時，比如，好吧，團隊真的很喜歡你，他們認為你在ABCD方面做得很好，看到你有很大的發展潛力，你知道，我們已經準備好進入offer階段了，你想要什麼？

Even at that stage, I still would recommend don't give your number. Sometimes you want to take this call to really understand the compensation philosophy. Like, they can't just be pushing for a number when you don't tell you, when they don't tell you, like, what goes into it, right?

即使到了這個階段，我還是建議不要提供電話號碼。有時，你想通過這個電話來真正瞭解賠償理念。比如，你不告訴他們，他們也不告訴你，他們不可能只逼著你給一個數字，比如，他們會怎麼做，對嗎？

You can't make a decision without being informed. So push it back on them and say, truthfully, you know, I've been really busy prepping for the interview, I haven't put much thought into it. If you don't mind just kind of going over the compensation structure with me first, and then we can go over perks and benefits, and then we'll take it from there.

不瞭解情況是無法做出決定的。是以，你可以反過來對他們說，實話實說，你知道，我一直在忙著準備面試，還沒怎麼考慮過這個問題。如果你不介意的話，可以先和我討論一下薪酬結構，然後我們再討論一下津貼和福利，最後再做決定。

And, you know, once they go over everything again, you can just push it back on them one more time saying, you know, this is a little bit newer for me and everyone has different compensation structure. I know I'm not comparing Apple to Apple. If you don't mind just sharing the numbers with me first, it would be super productive or effective or super helpful for me. I would greatly appreciate it.

而且，你知道，一旦他們把所有東西都過了一遍，你就可以再推回給他們一次，說，你知道，這對我來說有點新，每個人都有不同的薪酬結構。我知道我不是在拿蘋果和蘋果做比較。如果你不介意先和我分享一下數字，那將會是非常有成效或有效的，對我來說也是非常有幫助的。我將不勝感激。

It's almost like a game of poker of just, like, just waiting for them to fold, just, like, waiting and waiting and waiting and waiting, and then having them be the first to show their hand.

這幾乎就像一場撲克遊戲，只是在等他們棄牌，只是在等啊等啊等啊等，然後讓他們第一個亮牌。

Exactly. And, like, once the recruiter has to explain everything for you, they were just like, I might as well just share your number now.

沒錯而且，一旦招聘人員向你解釋了一切，他們就會說，我還不如現在就把你的電話號碼告訴你。

And I'm going to have to explain it later.

Right. And like you mentioned at that stage, you've, like, already gone through the entire interview process. You've got a sense for the company culture. You've got a sense of what they're looking for in this role. You have their compensation philosophy together. You can piece all of those together, even, that when they give you a number, you have the data and information to be able to confidently say, like, actually, based on what I know and what I've learned, I think I'm this much instead.

好吧就像你提到的，在那個階段，你已經經歷了整個面試過程。你已經對公司文化有了感覺。你已經瞭解了他們對這個角色的要求。你已經瞭解了他們的薪酬理念。甚至，當他們給你一個數字時，你有數據和資訊，能夠自信地說，就像，實際上，根據我所知道的和我所學到的，我覺得我反而要高出這麼多。

Exactly. And you want to do a lot of the asking good questions during that call, like asking about the bonus structure. How does that work? Typically, like, when it's a payout, is it once a year? Is it twice a year? Is there any other bonuses on top of, you know, what you guys offer and things like that?

沒錯。在通話過程中，你要提出很多好問題，比如詢問獎金結構。獎金是如何發放的？通常情況下，獎金是一年發放一次嗎？是一年兩次嗎？除了你們提供的獎金之外，還有其他獎金嗎？

And for companies that don't offer a bonus, that's the perfect window for you to use that as a leverage against them. Like, hey, since you don't offer me any bonus, what I want to be mindful of is inflation and, you know, living costs that just keep going up.

對於那些不提供獎金的公司來說，這正是你利用這一點來對付他們的絕佳機會。比如，嘿，既然你不給我獎金，那我要注意的就是通貨膨脹，還有，你知道的，生活成本一直在上漲。

So essentially, if I don't take this into consideration now, the longer I stay with the company, essentially, the less my take-home pay is going to be. And I don't want to be in a position where salary is a thing for me to have to leave the company. So I hope you understand where I'm coming from. They can't say no to that. You're going to be the biggest asshole if you say no after that request.

是以，從本質上講，如果我現在不考慮這一點，我在公司呆的時間越長，我的實得工資就會越少。我不希望因為薪水問題而不得不離開公司。所以，我希望你們能理解我的想法。他們無法拒絕如果你拒絕了他們的要求 那你就是最大的混蛋了

Right. That's true. Yeah. Use all of that knowledge you learned in AP econ to talk about inflation, to talk about money and use all of that to your advantage. This whole conversation of this back and forth between yourself and a recruiter, recruiter has a hiring manager and other folks behind them to make decisions about all of this. But what's the best format to be having this conversation?

沒錯That's true.是啊 Yeah.利用你在AP經濟學中學到的知識 談談通貨膨脹 談談錢 把這些都用在你的優勢上你和招聘人員之間的來回對話，招聘人員背後有招聘經理和其他人員來做決定。但是，進行這種對話的最佳形式是什麼呢？

Yeah, good question. So typically I would recommend do that over via email. You know, after the recruiter tells you we would love to move forward, they go over the compensation structure with you, perks and benefits, let them know this is a lot of good information. Let me just take some time to process all of this and get back to you later. Would that make sense for you? Would that work for you?

是的，問得好。所以，通常我會建議通過電子郵件來做。你知道，在招聘人員告訴你我們很願意與你合作之後，他們會與你一起討論薪酬結構、福利和津貼，讓他們知道這些都是很好的資訊。讓我花點時間處理一下這些資訊，稍後再給你回覆。這對你有意義嗎？這對你有用嗎？

As a recruiter for myself, it's so much easier to, you know, kind of follow the thought process. Sometimes it's really hard to like maybe when I'm on the phone, someone just pinged me. I got distracted. Maybe they were asking me 140, but I misheard them and I wrote down 104, for example.

作為一名招聘人員，我自己要做的就是，你知道的，按照思維過程去做，這樣就容易多了。有時候真的很難，就像我在打電話的時候，有人剛給我發了簡訊。我分心了也許他們問我 140，但我聽錯了，我寫下了 104，例如。

So just to have everything on paper is so much easier for the recruiter to, you know, not make any mistake when it comes to numbers there. And let's say if I have to get an approval from their manager, it's so much easier for me to just kind of forward that email to the manager or the compensation team.

是以，把所有東西都寫在紙上，招聘人員就不會在數字上出錯了。比方說，如果我需要得到他們經理的準許，我只需將郵件轉發給經理或薪酬團隊，這樣就方便多了。

So as a candidate, you have so much more control over your narrative, because you could be saying the perfect thing, but communication goes both ways, also dependent on what the other side is perceiving that message. So if this person misunderstood what you were saying, and this person is relaying all this information to the team, you don't know what went wrong in that process.

是以，作為候選人，你對自己的敘述有更多的控制權，因為你可以說得天衣無縫，但溝通是雙向的，也取決於對方對資訊的理解。所以，如果這個人誤解了你的意思，而這個人又把這些資訊轉達給了團隊，你就不知道在這個過程中出了什麼問題。

Like things can go sideways really fast. Or maybe this recruiter just explained something completely off and the manager could take it the wrong way. And that kind of what could potentially jeopardize your relationship with the manager. It makes life so much easier on you to do it over via email.

就像事情可能很快就走偏一樣。或者，招聘人員剛剛解釋了一些完全不對的地方，經理可能會誤解。這種情況有可能會破壞你與經理之間的關係。通過電子郵件進行溝通，會讓你的生活輕鬆很多。

Because a lot of the time too, I would see this happen with my friends where they, you know, I'll prep them like ask for this much. And they were like, yep, nope, I got it. And then we would rehearse it. And then when they're on the phone, they get so nervous that they start to like discount themselves. Like, well, I guess like, I mean, I kind of want 300k, but like, I would be okay with 250. And I'm just like,

因為很多時候，我也會看到我的朋友們出現這種情況，他們，你知道的，我會事先跟他們說要這麼多。然後他們會說，好的，不，我知道了。然後我們會排練然後當他們在電話裡的時候 他們就會緊張到開始給自己打折扣比如說，我想，我是說，我想要30萬 但25萬我也沒問題我就想

I'm just like, the best analogy to think of this too is when you send the recruiter an email, and then you have a call with them after it's just the analogy of like, when you watch a movie and you read the book before the movie so much easier to understand, right? Versus if you just watch the movie, and you've never seen the never read the book before, you have no idea what's going on in the movie.

我只是想，最好的比喻是，當你給招聘人員發送一封電子郵件，然後你與他們通話後，這只是類比一樣，當你看一部電影，你讀這本書之前的電影，所以更容易理解，對不對？相比之下，如果你只看電影，而之前從未看過書，你根本不知道電影裡發生了什麼。

So that's like kind of taking the call without priming the recruiter, like what you're going to talk about, and you have to explain everything live. They're just gonna sit there and be like, okay, like, I guess it makes sense, but I'm not sure. So email is the best way to go easier for you to lay out your thought process. They're much easier for the recruiter to share all that information with the team, you have so much more control over your narrative.

所以，這就像那種接聽電話，而不引誘招聘人員，就像你要談什麼，你必須現場解釋一切。他們就會坐在那裡，好吧，我想這是有道理的，但我不確定。所以，電子郵件是最好的方式，更容易讓你闡述你的思考過程。對於招聘人員來說，他們更容易與團隊分享所有資訊，你對自己的敘述有更多的控制權。
