You're Hardcore But I Love You Anyway... (Talking Points when asking employers about Compensation)

We've talked elsewhere on the Career Capitalist about when to talk about comp (and the dangers of being the first one to bring it up) and how to answer questions from interviewers related to your expected salary when asked, yet you persist - you want to be proactive and ask the interviewer about compensation for the position (before they ask you)....

Is asking about compensation before an interviewer brings it up ever a good idea?  Usually not.  Most of the interviewers you run into will note this as unusual and you run the risk of being identified as driven by money.  Not a great way to start off the interview process.  Remember, when it comes to your knowledge of the target comp for a position you are pursuing, there are 3 different states you can be in as a candidate:

1.  You won't take a job below a specific minimum salary.  Period...

2.  You are unsure about what salary you can command in the marketplace, and with this in mind, don't want to establish a minimum that would eliminate you.

3.  You have a pretty good understanding of what the position might pay, which is acceptable to you.

Among these three situations, only one (#1), really presents a compelling argument for you to be bold and bring up the comp the position might yield.  After all (you say) why waste everyone's time if it is not a $$ fit for you, right?  Maybe.  The worst possible outcome is that the $$ are a fit after you ask, but the interviewer/recruiter is so turned off by the question that you will no longer be considered, whether they disclose that or not.

Here's the golden rule -  If you pro-actively ask an employer about money, ask early and very late in the process, never in the middle.  If you have to engage the employer and ask about compensation for a position, do it on the first call you get, or late in the process when the next step is a likely offer.   Most companies you would want to work for will run you through a multi-faceted interview process, so don't put off the "influencers" or the "approvers" in the process by asking about money.  Often times these folks are in the process to ensure they can simply work with you, to see if the dialog is comfortable, etc.  Ask the money question and most of them will frame you as driven by money or worse yet, selfish.

Suggested talking points - "Since we are very early in the process and attempting to determine overall fit on both ends, can you tell me what the targeted compensation range for the position is?"  Use phrases like this on the first call you get, and the odds of a misstep related to comp are minimal....

when I look at all of these shiny new personal broadcast toys I'm convinced that the world's most famous celebrity in the next few years will be an undiscovered teenage girl whose rampant party hedonism, off the shelf video streaming sunglasses and instant worldwide net audience will propel her into stellar regions.

The average man who uses a, tephleone could not explain how a tephleone works. He takes for granted the tephleone, the railway train, the linotype, the airplane, as our grandfathers took for granted the miracles of the gospels. He neither question nor understand them. It is as though each of us investigated and made his own a tiny circle of facts. Knowledge outside the day’s work is regarded by most men as a gewgaw.

What I want to say is that every body may have his own points on certain subjects and things. So sometimes it is really not easy to say who is right or wrong, worse or better. However, what we should always do is that we must consider that everyone's opinion must have his own negative and positive points so that we can learn from each other in any case. Anyway , you do have got a good point and thank you for sharing.

Almost everyone knows the name of the game roulette. Originally, two variations of the game were formed on both sides of the Atlantic – the European and the American version. The difference lies in the number of zeros in both the roulette wheels. The European version has 1 to 36 and a single zero, ‘0.’ The American version has numbers 1 to 36 and a double zero, ’00.’ The European roulette wheel is a better choice for a player because it has lower house edge. You would be betting on the numbers, their specific combinations or on the colors red and black. The wheel is spun by the dealer when everyone has made the bet. A ball is put into the spinning wheel and the number slot where it stops in the end gives the winning bets.

Online slots games are the most popular casino games in the world. This is because slots is probably the most widely played online casino game. It has many online versions and it is also a simple game and doesn’t require you to learn any rules.

The site you mentioned, srnttsbetpiog.com is not a friendly site if you decide to cash out or actually claim your bonus, for that matter. I've found that online sportsbooks that offer high bonuses tend to do so just to draw you in they never want you to get that money and will fight you tooth and nail for it. If you plan on never cashing out, by all means go with srnttsbetpiog.com. (It is common for poker sites to offer and honor high bonuses, as you might find out, but this is a pattern I've noticed with online sportsbooks). If you choose a reliable site, you might have less of a bonus, but you can rest assured that your money will be available to you when you request a cashout.I play at the following sites:Bookmaker:Beted:Intertops:Although the deposit bonuses aren't as high, they DO have excellent customer service and fast/free payouts. Some also offer different reload bonuses or tickets to major sporting events. Read the reviews of each at where you'll also find free sports picks as well as tips on how to securely deposit and withdraw, as well as reviews of other recommended sites. Hope this helps.

Yes, most casinos have an elroiecntc board the displays the previous 10-15 spins on each table. Keep in mind, however, that previous spins have absolutely no effect whatsoever on the next spin. The previous 100 spins could have all come up black, the chances are still close to 50/50 (1.1111 to 1, to be exact) that it will be black on the next spin. These previous results have no bearing at all, the wheel has no memory.

Technically, she is not stupid. Those are the signs of adcitdion. Thinking that she has the control, blowing money which she obviously cannot afford, she is hurting her son, she is a state of denial, she is very defensive. She needs help but she is unable to reach out her hand. Her pride and boredom are the walls which prevent outside help. Her son needs to pray hard for her. her son needs to move out and get his own life.

There are some insights in exilpinang Gamblers [Romanelli]. He derived sense of achievement from the table. And also he must be thinkiing that he is holding to the secret f3n breaking the system . He wants to feel special. The tables offer him both the sense of achievement and uniqueness which [most likely] cannot be found in his job. He must be a guy with low sense of security and self-esteem. I hope he seek help before the table totally finished' him. He is a nice guy but needs help. (

I can't understand why these guys let this Brit pussy hang with them at all. He is a total dneowr for Vegas. What is his big expose'? Hang on, it's quite a discovery. The casinos are in the business of making money off gambling. Did not know that one. He is such a dweeb, moaning about betting his own money, fucking with a guy that just lost a bunch of money, asking all dead pan, are you having fun?' Fuck him, what a shit head.

The temptation of easy money has great abliity to cloud even the clearest mind! In time of finanical difficulty, there is NO way to hold back the influence of the temptation. I am speaking from personal experience. If I win, I have every reason to go back to the table. If I do not win, there are lot more reasons to come back again! Even, when I am not in the Casino, the mind will stil wander back. For the slight excuse, I will rush back to the Casino again..
