Brian Binke, CEO of The Birmingham Group – A member of the Sanford Rose Associates® network of offices, Featured in Monster, How to Win at the Salary Negotiation Table

Plano, TX 2/24/2020

They say money talks, and for the majority of job candidates, salary is the number one factor when it comes to considering an offer. That’s what 73% of respondents said in Monster’s most recent State of the Candidate survey; and more than half (54%) said they’ve changed jobs solely because the one they had wasn’t paying enough.

What’s more, younger job seekers are more likely to reject a lowball offer – with 63% of Millennials, 60% of Gen X, and 52% of Boomers saying they’d walk away.
