Pre-Employment Drug Test - Pass Now let's talk about the pay!
    #14087364 - 03/08/11 03:35 PM (12 years, 11 months ago)

Ok Friends,

I really need this job that pays $28/hr in Maine.  I have been talking with a recruiter for a while now and the Government company has decided to hire me thru the recruiting company.  The recruiter told me the pay very early, but now I have been approved for the job thru over-the-phone interview (44min), taken a drug test, and passed the background test.  Once the drug test is approved, should I mention the cost of living is high and I would like $34/hr, just to throw it out there.  I've already asked if they will spot me some cash to drive from NY to ME to check out the area and secure and apartment. They won't do it, cause their cheap!  I don't want to scare them away either. :syringe::mushroom2:

You could perhaps get a small personal loan?

I'd jump on $28/hour like nobody's business.

No.

Why on earth would they hire you for an agreed upon amount, and then increase your pay?

Further, you're asking for an almost 25% pay increase.  25% is a shit to ask for without a significant promotion to an entirely new position.  IMO it's in bad taste, and to ask for that much isn't wise.

What if I'm only asking for $2 more an hour?  Not so bad, right?  I should find out how overtime works before I sign the contract.  Yeah, it's a bad time now to be asking for added pay.  I'm not going to even try.:syringe::mushroom2:
