Making the Offer

final step in selection process

Making the offer

The process in which the power shifts to the candidate during job negotiations.

Key question 1 to ask candidates before making offer

'If we were to make a job offer today, when would you be in a position to accept or reject the offer?' It indicates the candidate's current job offer situation.

If candidate answers, “right now” to question 1, what does that indicate?

Indicates they do not have other job offers or prefer your organization.

Key question 2 to ask candidates before making offer

Ask, 'At what point, dollar wise, would you accept our job offer and at what point would you reject it?' This helps gauge the candidate’s expectations.

Importance of knowing salary budgets

Being aware of upper and lower salary budget limitations is crucial due to candidates wanting to negotiate salary.

Qualifying candidates based on salary
