Negotiation and the acceptance or rejection of an offer is the final step in the job search process. But only about 25 percent of job applicants attempt to negotiate even though negotiation is widely accepted and usually expected. Women are often more reluctant to negotiate than men, and this disinclination accounts, in part, for continuing wage discrepancies between the sexes. In this workshop, Dr. Rebecca Bryant will address the importance of job offer negotiation, the fears that prevent people–especially women–from negotiating, and provide specific advice on how to successfully negotiate.<\/p>\n
