flickr: Unhindered by Talent
Jobseekers may be more able to find a little “wiggle room” in job offers, a new survey from Robert Half reports.
The staffing firm asked 1600 CFOs from US and Canadian companies with 20 or more employees how willing they would be to negotiate salaries with top job candidates, compared to twelve months ago.
While most of the CFOs (54%) said their willingness had not changed, 27 percent were “somewhat more willing” and 11 percent were “much more willing,” with only 5 percent saying they were less willing.
“Job seekers, especially those with skills in high demand, are gaining leverage in salary discussions today,” Robert Half CEO Max Messmer said in a statement.
