I always tell people the easiest way to get a raise is to find a new job. Nobody is keeping up with inflation anymore, it's pretty much required to job hop to break even anymore.
I like my job, but I'd leave for the right position/compensation.
I try to interview once per quarter, at least.
I've started adding some tough questions, like asking how the average annual increases compare with inflation and COLA. Most interviewers turn into a 13 year old telling a girl they have a crush on them -- all of the sudden 0 confidence.
That's when I tell them that for the circumstance, my compensation ask is going to be quite high.
I also tell local employers that my "in office" ask is literally 5x pay. They always balk and say somethi g like "yeah that's not gonna happen," to which I say "Tell me about it!"
Everyone should interview more. Declining a good offer because you like your situation more feels like doing cocaine.
I often get ask about my salary expectation in the very first 10 minute interview with the HR person, before even getting the chance to talk to the team. Being sincere, I wouldn't get to follow-up interviews if I told them my expectation that they would definitely see as too high.
How do you deal with that situation?
Make sure you have a job while interviewing for a new one, that way you aren't desperate, and hold your ground!
