FAQs

Do I really need job offer advice?

After making offers to over a thousand candidates we discovered that many people, even seasoned job seekers, often lacked the confidence, skills and insight regarding the offer and negotiation process. The majority of our clients have received better offers after consulting with us.

At what point in my job search should I contact jobofferadvice.com?

You can engage us at any point during your interview process. No matter when we begin the bulk of our communication will occur at the conclusion of your interviews, but before you receive an offer. This is the point at which we can add the most value to your offer and negotiation processes.

I just accepted an offer, is it too late for you to help me?

How does your service work?

First you will select one of our service plans and complete a questionnaire that provides all the important details you will need to get started. Once your purchase is completed, a consultant will contact you within 4-8 business hours depending on which service plan you choose. At that point we will begin working with you to fine tune your negotiation approach by discussing your offer goals and the specifics of the opportunity you are considering, so that you can get the best possible offer.
