Thanks everyone. I know the job market is tough right now, and I'm incredibly blessed to not only currently have a job, but to also have a potential offer for a new one. I know there are many out there who are unemployed and I really feel for them.
As far as the range that was offered, I should have been more clear...she said "I'm thinking between X and Z per hour", and I said "Z amount would be satisfactory". So I chose the higher amount. Also, I should mention that when I told her I was bilingual, she shouted "You're hired!!" LOL...so I have a pretty good feeling I was the strongest candidate. She also mentioned that when she saw my résumé she knew I was it. It's just a matter of getting corporate to agree to my asking for a slightly higher salary than what I agreed to with her. I'd rather not give a range, because I'm really only looking for $1 more, so I'm afraid saying "between x and z amount" might sound worse than saying "a dollar more". Or am I wrong? I'm not good at this kind of thing as you can tell lol! |
