 Should you still negotiate higher salary if you were laid off during a recession? Here's a tip, number one, yes, you should, but really depends on the situation and how to do it. First of all, if you were laid off and in the final round interview, you have a conversation with a recruiter. If you discover that you're competing with other candidates and you're not the number one candidate and the recruiter kind of alluded to that they're selecting among all three of you guys in that situation, I wouldn't negotiate. However, if in the interview, you clearly can discover that you are the number one candidate or the Harry manager told you so or the recruiter told you so, you are the number one candidate, in that case, you can still negotiate very high compensation because you have the right and the value you can add to the company. For example, assuming my recently landed job in TikTok, I negotiate offer for her. Not only original salary is very high, we also increase salary again by using the right negotiation strategy.
