SALARIES & JOB OFFERS 

Have a job offer in-hand and wonder what comes next? Or, would you just like to be prepared for when the day comes? Surprisingly, there's a lot more to consider than just the salary when evaluating a job offer.

Congratulations, you got a job offer! Now what?

As you evaluate a job offer, consider:

Company/Position Fit

  • Are the work environment (team, culture...), position duties, and management style a good fit?

  • What are the opportunities for growth?

  • What skills or experience can you expect to gain?

Salary/Benefits

  • Are you being offered a fair market value for your skills and experience? How does this offer compare to similar job titles and organizations?

  • What employee benefits are offered by the organization? Do these benefits offset the salary?

  • What is the job market like right now for current students and recent grads?
