Correct Body Language In Interview: Now let's talk about a very important topic that is body language. Now first understand what is body language. Body language is a way you communicate your feelings with your postures, gestures, facial expressions, and movements. Body language is usually subconscious. Mike, the practice you can learn to control your body language and project confidence to those around you. Whether you're appearing for an interview, whether you're giving a presentation, whether you are a leader, instructor, coach, or any person dealing with any situation in public, you got to have a consistent, positive and correct body language because it tells a lot about you without even speaking. When we talk about body language and interview, they'd are a few key aspects to it. Body language in job interview, gifts the interview a great deal of information that is not conveyed by the spoken word alone. It reveals whether the candidate is confident, goal-oriented, and focused, or indeed whether the candidate might actually be bored, insecure, and nervous while you are an interview. If you're maintaining a correct body language, if you're sounding confident, if you are smiling properly, if your posture is correct, if your hand woman disconnect, if your voice tone is not modulated, if your legs positions are correct, if you're not moving and nodding your head too much, if you're not scratching your head, if you're not moving your leg too much, it gives an impression that this particular person is a confident one and is prepared. Consistent body language provides an opportunity to convince the interviewer of your worth as a candidate. If you're maintaining a consistent body language. When I talk about consistency, it means that if you're speaking in a specific tone, you should maintain that tone. If you're maintaining a specific body posture, you should maintain the same. In addition to gestures, facial expression, and posture, the volume and the tone of your voice play an important role. Only 7% of the total attention is actually given over to your content itself. So when it talks about the body language, it's very critical. Because whenever you're answering any question, if your body language is correct, if your tone is correct, if you're able to convince the interview with the confident body language than the probability of getting a success in the interview is fairly high. Now let's talk about the key things about body language. You are what your wheel. When it comes to body language, it's important that you are wearing a character tire and you are very trust. The right greeting makes a good impression. So while you're entering the interview room or while you're appearing for the interview in video conversation also always agreed the interview first with a good smile and a good facial expression. Eye contact is a sign of openness and interest. So if you are maintaining a good eye contact with the interview, it means you're connected to them and you're interested in what they are asking and seeing upright posture signals Confidence Instant. If you're sitting upright, it means that you are confident and you have sodium strength. Saying goodbye, your last chance to win them over.

How To Do Active Listening In Interview: So now let's talk about a very important topic which is active listening. While you were having a conversation in office. While you're having a conversation in an interview. Active listening is very important and plays a vital role when it comes to answering the questions in a proper manner and understanding what is being asked. Let's just understand what is active listening. Active listening is a soft skill that helps in high regard might be employers. When interviewing for jobs, using active listening technique can help show the interview how your interpersonal skills can draw people out. Active listening, redirect your focus from water's going on inside of your head to the needs of your prospective employer or interview. If I tell you the crux of it, active listening is basically a technique through which you understand what is being said in a proper manner and you actively listen to what is being asked. There is a difference between hearing and listening. So when it comes to hearing, you're just hitting whatever is coming your way. But whenever you're listening actively, it means that you're processing that information in your mind and you're preparing a proper constructive unsaid around it. And during interview, it is very important to actively listening to what is being said accordingly, process that information in the mind and prepare a proper constructive sequential answer around it so that you can answer the question being asked in a proper manner. So let's talk about the advantage of active listening. By placing your focus through active listening squarely upon the interview, you prove that you are interested in the organization. Challenges and success. You're ready to help them problem-solve work issues. Are you a team player as opposed to being nothing more than a cell absorbed up candidate. While you're actively listening to what is being said, they are engaging, what kind of person you are. Let's say they are asking a question and you're not actively listening to it, you will not pick the nuances of it. While you're answering to it, you will miss fewer things. Let's say in an interview, there is a question that is being asked and it's a long question which is containing multiple things. So I'll give you an example. Let's say in an interview, the person or the interviewer asked, tell me something about yourself, your work experience, the project that you have done, what are the benefits of the project? What are the demerits of the projects? What are the language that was used in the project? And in the end, telling me something about your interest that you have. So there are multiple questions that are being asked her. If you're not able to recall those answers in a proper manner, what it will do is that it will given signal to the interview that you are not gauging the questions properly. You're not actively listening. So it's very important that whenever you're an interview or in any conversation in public also, which is important when it comes to presentations also or group meetings, group discussions also, actively listening to what is being said is very important to give up correct and appropriate constructive, sequential answer, which will suffice the need. Now let's talk about the key things to take care while you're doing active listening. It's important to not interrupt averse. Try to answer the question before you know what the interviewer is asking. When it comes to active listening, it means that, let's say if an interviewer is asking something until the interview is finished, do not start on sitting. Let the interviewer finish. Understand what is being asked, what is being said in a proper manner, then only construct an answer around it and then on.So you can take a pause of 510 seconds also, that is fine. But if you will be in a hurry to answer the question being asked at times you might miss the details of it, which will give a bad signal and abandoned question. Listen carefully to the interviewer's question, asked for clarification if necessary, and wait until the interviewer has finished talking to respond. Do not interrupt. As I said earlier, when able to interviews saying something, listen patiently and understand what he's trying to say. Do not answer in a hurry. Take a pause of 1015 second frame and answer in your mind and then calmly answer in a structured manner covering things that are asked. When ever data something that has been asked by the interview. Take a pause, understand, recollect all the information. Structured and answer rounded, and then calmly in a, in a confident tone, start answering things one-by-one. Now, we'll talk about active listening technique with examples. So they don't majorly three techniques which you can use during the interview while you're actively listening to the questions first, building trust and establishing report. When it comes to building trust and establishing report, it is basically a way through which you're connecting with your interviewer in a, in a correct manner. And you're establishing a relationship after going through the profile. So what you can say while, for the words when it comes to building trust and establishing report. After going through the profile and the company research. I'm excited to be a part of this organization. When you will use phrases like this, it means that you are building trust, you or you have done your research about the company and you want to work with the company, you can use these phrases during your interview to establish trust and red board. Secondly, paraphrasing. It is very important whenever there is something being asked in an interview, if you're not able to gauge the question properly, always paraphrase and ask again for the clarification. So you want to know in detail about the project that I have done and what the major benefits of the same. Always, if in case you are not sure, always paraphrase and ask the interviewer against so that while you are giving the final answer, you're not missing on the details. Thirdly, brief verbal affirmation. It is very important, Let's say interviewed is saying something about the company project profile. Asking any question, nodding of the head in a positive manner, saying words like okay, correct. Shaw. Yeah. I agree with you on that. These are certain things that you can see. What it will do is that these are part of brief verbal F0 missions. It proves, and it gives the signal to the interview that you're actively listening to what is being said. And you're positively understanding the things that as being said. Always give brief a formation. Always paraphrase if in case you are in doubt and build trust by saying words. Like I'm excited about this profile, I've read about the company and you can talk about the things that you have done. It's important part of the interview selection. So always, always actively listen to what is being said. Be patient. Construct your answer before answering. Do not hurry. Thank you so much for your time. I'll see you in the next one. 10. Correct Answering Structure in Interview: Now let's talk about a very important lecture. What should be answering structure during an interview? When I talk about the answering structure, there are three main things related to that. One is the opening part. When you're talking about the topic sentence or the main idea of the question that is asked. Second is the middle part. Therein, you add some supporting detail to the question that you're answering. Third part is the closing part where you are summarizing your answer and you're giving a sign that you're ending the answer. Net. Just understand with certain examples that what should be opening, closing and the middle part of it so that you can give a structured answer in a good manner. Let us understand with an example. When I talk about opening, the opening should answer the question without adding extra details and unnecessary words. So here's an example. What was your favorite class last year? It's a straightforward question. Your answer should be. My favorite class last year was Enterprise Risk Management. Straight, straight away, you are giving answer to the question that is being asked. Second question, what is your biggest weakness? My biggest weakness is that I get frustrated and impatient when my employees don't do their work. Well. If you understand these two questions that are being asked, the main idea is still where the individual is asking about your favorite class in the first question and the second is asking about the biggest weakness. It's a straightforward question. And you can answer in opening part, like this, the way you told me talk about the middle part. The middle part of your answer should give details that support your opening sentence. Give 12 or three details more than that can make dancer confusing. What was your favorite class last year? The question is that you can answer. My favorite class last year was Enterprise Risk Management. I liked it because I had never studied risk management before. I learned useful things that I know I'll need it in my future. I also enjoyed over group discussions. This is something that initially you're answering to the main question that is being asked. And you're also adding the detail that I had never studied risk management before. This is a one detail, sweat. Learn useful things that oil needed in future career. These are certain details that you're adding to the question. The answer that you're giving this answer gifts to the deal to support the topic sentence. Choose the detail to make the answer interesting, or to give more information to support the sentence. So whenever you're giving the answer, when it comes to the middle part, give some supporting statements and information to make your answer more good. Closing part. Once you're ready to finish your answer, it's important to say something that shows you're finished. It says things that sums up your answer and shows your finished. What was your favorite class last year? If that is the question, what should be answered? I'm talking about the closing part and the complete answer. How you can give the complete answer in one mole. My favorite class last year was Enterprise Risk Management. I liked it because I had never studied risk management before. So I learn useful, useful things that I know I'll need it in my future career. And I also enjoyed about group discussions. When I think about my class last year, enterprise risk management is definitely the one that I enjoyed the most was the complete answer that you're giving to the interview once he or she's asking for it. Now let's talk about the important topics that is question types. So no matter for which kind of interview you are applying, there will be three type of medication that are being asked. One is knowledge-based. This is basically a straight awake state of equation related to the product, technology, audit and technical skill. Let's say, if we talk about that, tell me what are the browsers that you have used? Tell me a surgeon anion. So these are certain questions we just straightaway when it comes to worlds by certain unit school. When it comes to browsers, you can talk about Microsoft Edge, you can talk about Chrome. These are state of equations related to the topic that is being asked. These are knowledge-based quotient. If you remember them, you'll be able to answer. If you don't, you'll not be able to answer them properly. Second is behavioral based. So these behavioral based questions are very important and are being asked. In all the interviews, especially for the people who are going for experienced position and a leadership position because behavioral based questions defines lot about the person. So we will follow the star approach visit, which is situation, task, action, result. Another type of question that is being asked in interviews, especially for the leadership position and for the people who are experienced is hypothetical. It needs strong analytical skills. And out of the Boston thinking. Now let's talk about all these question types one-by-one, and I'll explain the answers also how to upload these things. It's a behavioral question. If I talk, a behavioral question looks at how you have handled a specific challenge in the past to assess if you'll be a good match for the rule. Sample requirement include decision-making, initiative, organization, time management, flexibility, leadership, problem-solving skills. Behavioral question usually start with the phrase, such as, tell me about a time when or give me an example of describer decision that you have made. Whenever you are giving a behavioral question, always actively listen to the cushion in a proper manner and engage the question. What has been asked? Structure the answer in your mind and then start speaking. Do not abruptly start. It's been recommended across the interviewing board that star approach is the best approach when it comes to giving the answers to the behavioral based questions. I tell you how, how this basic star approach works. Comes to star stands for situation. D stands for tasks. A standard for action. R stands for results. When I talk about situation, describe the context within which you perform the job of face to challenge it folk, be as specific as possible. You can talk about any situation that you have handled within. There was a specific problem that you had. Let say you are working in a company and the quality of the team was impacted. That is a situation. When it comes to task. Next, describe your responsibility in that situation. Perhaps you had to help your group complete a project within a tight deadline, dissolve a conflict with a coworker or hit a sale target. It can be anything. If you have a quality issue, you might have done certain of feedback sessions, training sessions, PGDs, and everything to make sure that your things are working in a proper manner and it comes to action. What action heavier taken? Describe how you completed the task or endeavored to meet the challenge. Focus on what you did rather than what your team boss or coworker. Whenever you're talking about the behavioral answers, it is very important to talk about your role and responsibility while resolving a certain conflict problem or issue that you faced. Because that is something defines that what you have done when it comes to results. Finally, you can explain the outcome or the results generated by the action taken. It may be helpful to emphasize what you accomplished and what you learn, what you might do differently. Next time, you can summarize the answer and talk about what you did and what was the outcome of that. In other cases can be that quality improved because of the things that we have done and vCore based for the work that we did. Now let's understand with an example of a behavioral question. Let's, let's understand with an example. In this example, describe a specific problem you solve for an employer or a team. How did you approach the problem? What rule did your you play? What was the outcome thanks to consider for your answer example from past experience when you demonstrated behavioral skills applicable to the role you're applying for, who you involved and how in you influence them. Let's say you solved a problem. What was your role and responsibility and then how you tackle those problems. What would the solution that you gave and how you made sure that that solution is working. Challenges that you faced and how you dealt with them. It's always important to talk about the challenges in the difficulty that you faced during that particular time and how you overcome that. That is also important to inculcate in the answer while you're giving it. Now, let's talk about a hypothetical question. While behavioral question, assess your past performance. A hypothetical question, also known as situational question, evaluate how you would handle a challenge you may not have encountered yet. Questions often begin with, imagine. When it comes to the hypothetical question, add the names and the interviewer will put you in a situation that might not be true. But if in case you in that situation, how you will think out of the box to resolve that problem that defines your character. Question often begins with imagine that you are designed to access your thought process rather than right or wrong situation or solution? Strong answer must have an understanding of the problem. Thoughtful problem-solving, potential solution, support for your solution and strong communication. Every parameter, if you're talking about a strong answer to a hypothetical question, every parameter is important. Understanding the problem that you have, thoughtful problem-solving skills, potential solutions, support for your solution. Strong communication skills. Whenever you're answering to a hypothetical question, Ghaidan, understand what will be the repercussions of the solution that you have done? And once the outcome is there, what solutions that you offered and how you can relate that solutions to the task that you have done. And what was your role and responsibility. And then it will basically define that how you can handle or hypothetical situation that you have never handled and what is your approach or thought process when it comes to problem-solving? That is very important when it comes to answering the hypothetical questions. Let's talk about the example of hypothetical question. Imagine that you are in charge of an organization. The grand opening of a new company offers in Bangalore, India, WhatsApp would you take to plan this? So you can talk about, and you can think about various things while you're answering. First, the objective of the event and the measurement of the success. Second, how will you invite to the event? Third, what will be the logistics around the event, setup, location, or timing ford stakeholder to involve in this process. Whenever you're answering your hypothetical question, always structure your answer in a sequential manner and talk point-by-point, objective. How you will be going to do it? Who will be the people to whom you will connect intake help, and how will you finalize all the things? I hope this particular lecture is pretty clear because it's very important. Go through this lecture again to understand the various type of question that we have discussed. We have talked about knowledge, Bitcoin, behavioral questions and hypothetical questions. I hope these all points are pretty clear to you. Thank you so much for your time. I'll see you in the next one. 11. How To Engage With an Interviewer?: So now that we have learned how to prepare for the interview, what are the key things to consider during the interview? What should be your answering structure? How you should prepare for the interview? What should be a body language? Let's talk about a very important aspect of it that is engaging with an interview. Interview is a person who's basically taking your interview. And if you're able to establish a good report with him, and if you are able to establish a good relationship with Him in terms of the interview, then the probability of success in the interview is fairly good. Let's understand the importance of engaging with an interview. It's always important to be polite and professional. Establishing a rapport with your interview is also key to success. Let's say you're walking up to an interview. You should be well dressed while walking up to the room. Always greet the interview. Madam. Good morning. If it's morning. If it's after 12 PM, you can mention Good afternoon. After 4PM, you can mention Good evening. Asked for the buying of the day, greet them with a smile.

Sit in the correct posture and smile adequately. If an interview fields and affinity for you as a person, they are more likely to feel positive about hiring you as an employee. So while you're an interview, while you're answering the questions, if your body language is positive, if you're able to, if you're able to answer the question in a positive manner, if you're actively listening, if your body language, if your gestures are good, what it will do is that it will help you establish a good rapport with the interview. And your probability of success in the interview accordingly increases. So basic objective of engaging with an interview. Basically what they see is that if an candidate is selected, how he or she will behave of work with the coworkers client and supervisors. Employers look for candidate who interact effectively with coworkers, clients and supervisors. And of course, everyone wants to work in a pleasant environment. So while you are engaging with an interviewer or interviewers gauging you that if in case this person gets selected, how he will behave or how he will treat others. So always be respectful, always be polite, always be calm and do not rush on giving answers and do not raise your voice or modulate your voice too much. Just try to be calm and try to maintain a consistency in your voice and in your body language. So let's talk about how to engage with an interview. So there are multiple things that you can focus on. First, start the interview right way while you're starting off with the interview, greeting the interview, walking up to the chair in a proper manner, sitting in a proper manner. It's important. Secondly, brief, friendly, and personal level. It means that when it comes to be friendly, it doesn't mean that you talk about things that are not appropriate in that are not required to be friendly means that while you're answering, do not get too serious about things and do not b2 friendly. Just try to maintain a professional attitude and behavior. Do we need conversation so that, you know that there is a line that this particular person isn't interviewing. I am a person who's come here for the interview. So you just try and maintain that balance. Show your interest in the person as well as the job. You can talk about the interviewer also, while you want to ask certain questions. In the end, once the interviewer asks, Do you have any questions for me, you can mention that. Can you tell me about that? What, How have your journey being in this organization? What do you have learned or any new technology that you worked on? What it will do is that it will try and establish a rapport with the interviewer. And interviewee will feel that you're interested in this job and the company and also the person. Make it personal. You can ask questions related to the work that they have done and something that they have learned. It's completely up to you. Remember good posture. Whenever you are sitting, maintain a good posture. Do not do too much of hand movement. Eye contact is important. Whenever you are whenever you're being interviewed, always look at the interview. Do not look here in there, and do not steal. Just look in a common normal manner that you get better phrase when needed. So as we talked about importance of paraphrasing also in part of active listening, that also helps in engaging with the interview. Let us say interview, ask a question or you're not able to understand and gauge that what the question was. You can paraphrase. Really want to understand that on this particular project, what I have done and what are the merit of it. I mean, just better phrase the question that they asked and understand that whether that was the question that was asked, not ask about company culture, you can talk about So can you tell me about the company culture? How have been your experience in this company, any positives that you want to share, you can talk about that. Thank you. Interviewers. Don't wait to follow-up. So whenever you are ending your interview, always thank you so much for your time. So it was nice talking to you. Always greet the employer and you can leave the conversation. Do not just leave abruptly. You can tag the interview for the important time and you can tell them that it was a good conversation that we had. Looking forward to meeting you. There also, in the end up, don't wait to follow up while you are done with the interview. If in case you wanted to follow up with the person or the HR, you can accordingly follow up on the conversation, on the mail or on the telephonic conversation also. I hope this particular point is very clear. It's a very important step when it comes to the interview part, engaging with the interview.

How To Negotiate Best Salary?: Congratulations on getting selected. It's a happy moment for you. Now let's understand a very important aspect, salary negotiation. It's a very critical thing and a tricky thing also, because most of the people after they get selected, get excited in a times lose the money on the table. They don't figure out how to negotiate the best possible salary. And at times they left the money that is on the table. Now in this particular lecture, we'll talk about the art of salary negotiation and what are the things that you should consider. When it comes to the salary negotiation part, there are few prerequisites for it. Let's just understand. So there are basically three things that you need before you can initiate your salary negotiation. And that is something which is expected from the employer. One is your last three months salary slip or any salary certificate from the employer mentioning the salary that you will getting earlier. Appointment letter with Sally and axial. If you don't have a salary certificate, if you have appointment letter and an extra to it so that they can understand this with the salary that you outward getting earlier. Last but not the least of very important later. That is appraisal letter or promotion later. This is basically for the people who have recently got promoted or for the people who have recently gotten appraisal. Have that later handy with you because that will help you get the hike on the current salary that you're getting. Now let's talk about the key things to consider in salary negotiation. First, it is search. How much this job pays in other companies via applications. We discussed about applications like ambition box. You can go to the ambition box to check what is the salary range startup particular person is getting a specific position. So let's say you are appearing foreign, DIY manager job. You can go to the ambition box website type of team manager job and see the reviews of the people in the salaries also who understand what is the average salary that a team manager is getting so that you're not losing money on the table and you are setting up the expectation value. Second, include perks, bonuses, and benefits you receive while you're negotiating the salary. You can mention that I was getting the travel allowance, I was getting the food alone, so I was getting the petrol allowance or anything. Any allowances or anything that you're getting extra from what you're getting into salary should be mentioned. Let's say you were getting a night allowance, you're getting paid for your OTs. This is something that you can mention, reach out to recruiters and head home does reach out to the recruiters and the people who are from the agencies, especially the recruitment agencies, what they will do is that they will give you the just and the brief of it that what is the maximum that you can get from this particular profile at this position? Ask colleagues, friends and family. You can always take help from your friends, family and colleagues to understand that what might be the salary that I should get for this particular profile, you can get a brief reference from them so that you can calculate your average salary that you might be asking. Never sell yourself. Short. It means until unless you have done the coded research on the salary that might be offered, or what is the probability of getting this salary? Do not setup the deal or do not accept the offer right away. Give some thought to it. If I think about it, analyze and understand the data around it, and then only you can move forward. How did the divine salary range did a mine the low point? Now let's talk about how the domain, the salary range. So basically, I'll tell you that if you're not aware about that, what should be the salary range from low to the high, middle? How to basically calculate that? First, define the low point. How much do you need to make n meat would accept if there was no better alternative around the corner. Let's understand. You're going for a job. First, understand what is the minimum that is that I'm expecting from that that this is something that if in case of the offer is below that are not accepted set of mine send a set-up. Number two, your in your mind so that while they give you that number, you are sure that whether to accept that offer or not. Secondly, define the midpoint. How much people like you be real, consult the research you have done. So basically, what you can do is that, let's say, I'll give you an example. Let's say your starting point might be ten lakh. You can set up a midpoint. And around 12.5 lakhs, right? So accordingly setup a point which is higher to the low point and define the height high point, that's your dream pay, one that would make you feel like you've got a raised before I even started. High point is a point wherein you feel that this is a salary. So let's say in an ambition box, you saw that the average salary for a manager is 15 lakh. This is something which average and currently are getting 11 lakhs. So 13 lack 14 lakh is something which might be a low point. And up too high you can get to 1718. So keep that in mind while you're negotiating. Forget the low point. You don't want that popcorn. Understand? You don't want to go too low on the salary negotiation, so understand this is something I should not accept. Your salad is between your midpoint and the high point. So sweet point when it comes to the salary negotiation is the high and the mid between that. So let's say the highest, 18 lakh meters, 15 lakh. The good sadly might be 1617. Use that salary range when talking to prospective employers. So whenever you're talking about your salary negotiation, talk to perspective employers. This is something that I'm looking for. Now let's understand a bad example of salary negotiation. What to avoid? This should be a big no. Jim, he's currently applying for a job as an account executive at a high growth startup. He answered all the technical questions and East behavioral interview questions. Both sides agree is a perfect match. Then comes the question, what are your salary expectations? This is a very important and critical question. Jim hertz, start bounding, sadly isn't important to me. I'm here because I believe in your product, he mumbles, these are certain statement that should never be said that Sally's not important. I'm not here for the salary. I want to learn only. Learning is important. But if you have worked so hard for it, so do not just give conclusive statements while you're discussing the salary. Downplaying salary expectation to get a foot in the door is a terrible mistake. Do not do it. Do not just say sadly is not important to me. I'm here for the product, I am here only for the learning. This is something which is vague and should not be said. It's like falling to your knees in desperation. It means that you are just begging them. They just take me I'll I'll come from whatever salary that you offer that is not the correct approach and never should be followed. Don't like be jim, don't like me Tim. I mean, do not follow this approach. So let's talk about how to answer salaried questions because this is very important. Whenever there are certain questions that are being asked, understand that how to answer them, and what are the key things that you should consider? Avoid giving a specific answer too early in the process, let's say the HR stat. So what salary are you looking for? Do not say I am looking 14 lags, 13 lab notes, say a number. What do you can say is that I'm looking for a lucrative benefit and asked for the current sadly, I have I will discuss about an LLC that how much I can get from it. Do not give a specific number right away. Give a range if you want. Let's say I am looking for 16 to 18 lakhs, right? You can give it an inch, but do not be specific. Turn the tables on the interview and get them to give your range. You can ask the interviewer you, what range are you offering? What is the salary that you're offering for this particular position? What it will do is that you are throwing the ball in their code. Now, they will answer that what is the salary that they can give you? Make a strong case for your range by providing evidence for your world. Let's say if you're negotiating your salary and they say that this is something that is not practical. You can show them with examples that I have checked it on with various friends and the people. And what I found is that this is something that as per the market standard people are getting, give yourself time to come back with specific counter-offer. So let's say if you're not happy with the offer, give yourself time and see that what they are offering again and then accordingly, move forward. If you're sadly Lynch overlap, you have something to work with. Let's say you're getting 12 lack currently and they're offering 14 lack of 15 lakh. If you see that that is overlapping or just above what you're getting, you can think and see that whether you want to accept that offer or not, ask if the salary is negotiate able or not. You can ask that whether this particular salary that you are offering is negotiable or not, Can we talk about it or not? Or is something that is fixed that you will be offering? This is something which is very important to ask because it's about, because this sadly will not change. If the deal is done. If you have signed the offer letter, it will not change. The numbers will remain the same. So all the negotiations in the efforts should go before, not after that. Ask how how you can get closer to the higher number so you can have a conversation with them and understand it. How much max taken, go about it so that they can get, you can get the best deal.
