I got a new job as a College Registar and they left the salary open to decide. How much should I ask for?

Tell them to make you an offer you can't refuse.  Hopefully, you know what your peers make and ask for 20% more than your peers.

It's a perfectly good question. You'd like to know the range. This gives you more bargaining power, but don't be surprised if they answer a question with a question, "What are your salary requirements?" Be prepared. And good luck!

Depends on how badly you inflated the number you told them.  \n\nIf it is not too outrageous, you can give them the dollar amount with the explanation that that the figure you gave them included benefits, tuition reimbursements, parking, vacation pay and whatever other applicable perks you can think of *IN ADDITION* to your salary.\n\nThey probably expect some inflation, so if your figure is not totally out of proportion, they still may go for it - or at least, offer you the job at a lower, proportional, rate.\n\ngood luck.

You should charge $5 per hour. So around $30 would be good

It depends on your location, cost of living, taxes,etc.....but that averages out to be $9.00 an hour so in my opinion i think this is a good wage....and with the job outlook depending on where you are....i'd take it because jobs will continue to decline in the future....I would take the job and be content with your pay until something better comes along!\n\nMinimum wage here is $5.15 so I think the answer to your question would be "OK"

Hi,\n\n  First, try to get a sense of what is fair for an experienced  professional.  You may even do a quick google search and find some and ask for an estimate.\n\n  As a rule of thumb, I would think $10-$15 bucks/hr seems at the absolute high end.  When you are first starting out, the experience you get is extremely valuable, and if they wanted to pay $40+ bucks per hour, they would have hired some one with an established business.  \n\n    I would also recommend that you set up the amount immediately!  You are just setting yourself (and your brother) up for problems if you do not get things set straight and ensure every one has the same expectations.  Finally, you definitely want to have a "reference account" so if you give your first customer a good deal, they are more likely to ask for repeat business, recommend you to another company, or provide a reference.  All of these are far more valuable than squeezing a few extra bucks from your first professional gig.\n\nGood Luck,

walked out on an interview that only offered me 35000 US dollars to start.  The previous job that I had was paying me 50000.  When they told mewhat they were going to pay me i just got up and left.  No thank you or nothing.  They also advertised that the postion was going to range from 50000-75000

No easy answer.  Try reading the suggestions at:\n\nhttp://www.csun.edu/career/job_search_skills/salary_info.htm\n\n"Most experts advise that when an employer asks you for your salary requirements in an ad or on a job application, you should indicate that salary is “negotiable.” Or, if you're asked to provide current salary, to respond with, "Will discuss during interview." In the highly competitive employment market of today, this can be a risky strategy. By failing to provide information requested by the employer to aid in their screening process, you may be automatically disqualified from further consideration at the beginning of the hiring process. On the other hand, if you do provide a salary range, you may be too high or too low to satisfy the employer, and you will be rejected. There really is no good answer to this dilemma. \n\nSince most companies have a salary structure for their organization with a range in mind for a specific job, you should consider communicating a well-researched salary range that would be the basis of salary and benefit negotiation. This strategy may enhance your chances of obtaining the interview and moving forward in the hiring process."

In the end it all comes down to experience. Unfortunately I was told that at the current company I work for that I would be making anywhere from $11-$13/hour (Not stated anywhere just told this). I ended up making $10/hour. When I asked why, I was told it was because of my lack of experience. A co-worker of mine makes $10.50 (50 cents more than me) for having 3 months more experience than me (0 days of experience in the current industry/field). To me that's just plain silly and unfair. But I don't really care. I don't have any college degrees so this is about the limit for a recent highschool grad!

Probably $35-40,000. I think its a great job, I suggested it to my husband. You get great experience at the job and can move up.

The agency probably quoted less with an expectation that you might come back demanding more. If you say you are not happy with even 50, they can say they will talk to the company and make themselves look good. Also possible they looked at your resume, salary history and figured you will be happy with 50. Making their clients happy is more important than making more money on one placement. Also they may have flat fee contract with the company.

Will the party requesting the estimate share any historical data with you?\n\nIf it's a legitimate RFP you should be able to get some guidance as to what their previous contract was, what they have budgeted, what their expectqations are or who held the contract previously.\n\nIf it's all brand new, you need to bid a number you can live with if you win the contract, even if that makes you high bidder.  Look carefully at the criteria you are being asked to use to find these sites and how much time you think you will need on average to complete the search.  Then take the hourly wage you want to earn and do the math.\n\nRemeber bad business is bad business...\nThere's no point winning a contract you can't afford to fulfill.

Just ask - if you have a good reason then tell them ex.\n\n- the going rate is $8.00 hour for 2 kids and what your paying me is not enough\n- My standard rates are:  {Lay them out, maybe it is more per kid, more on weekends, more after 10 pm or something}\n- Explain that you are in high demand due to your excellent skills and certification and you can't afford to babysit for less than $10 hour etc.
