Read the book "Getting to Yes", "a universal guide to the art of negotiating personal and professional disputes". It will repay itself a thousandfold as you walk into any negotiation with confidence, not just salary negotiations.

The most underused trick for salary negotiation is actually realizing that salary is negotiable - simply asking one question could increase your salary thousands of dollars.

Definitely. Kills me when people say, "But they never gave me a chance to negotiate!"

Your negotiation starts as soon as you begin the first interview. Always play for position.

If you enjoyed this podcast I can recommend the book "Getting to Yes":

It's a little bit dated but an excellent introduction to negotiation and overlaps with a number of the topics discussed in the show.

Agreed. This book has made me more money than any other book without exception.
