[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, when you're looking for a new job, do you just accept what they offer or do you negotiate? Why would you expect a nanny to do any different. [/quote] I'm an MB. When I apply for a job and they have a salary listed in the job posting then, no, I don't try to negotiate. If the salary is lower than I want I don't apply for the job. Why should I expect a nanny to do any different?[/quote] Lies. Companies list a range and its unwise to simply accept the first offer. Trying to negotiate a salary before an offer is not normal or even good etiquette, but saying you expect a nanny to just accept what you offer is ridiculous. If a family list their rate as slightly lower than I'm looking for, I usually will still apply if it seems otherwise to be a good match. Once an offer is extended, damn right I negotiate. [/quote] Agreed.[/quote]
