How would you gather some market data for similar positions?

Submitted by: Administrator

While this may be something you took into account when you first negotiated your salary, your role and responsibilities probably have changed. Look at similar levels in the industry to see what others are being paid for similar work. Determine the usual salary range for those who do what you do in your region or area. Getting market data for comparable positions can empower you by helping you be and feel more knowledgeable when you talk with your boss.
☛ While these things will be helpful when you build your case, they should not be used as the principal argument for getting a pay raise, they simply inform you about your potential worth, not your boss.
