About the program
This 37-lesson and growing online course from Salary Coach, John Gates, changes the way you think about negotiating compensation during the hiring process. While most people think salary negotiation begins when a job offer is extended, John teaches you how to begin the negotiation starting with the application.
Get Your Phone Ringing
Learn how to answer the “Salary Requirement” questions in applications in a way that gets you into more phone screens without painting yourself into a corner.

Build Value in Interviews
Learn how to differentiate yourself in interviews as a high-value candidate, improving your chances for a first-place finish and a maximized offer.
Negotiate at the Offer Stage
Learn how to identify when there is room for negotiation, how to get a signing bonus included, and how to effectively close with the best offer they are willing to give.
