Knowing your worth (evaluating your value in work & in life)
Update: 2020-01-06
Description
I’m going to answer this question in two parts. The first part will be how to evaluate your worth when applying for jobs or pursuing a job promotion or raise. The second part will be evaluating your value as a person and what that looks like in your relationships.
Professional
- Don’t undervalue yourself. You are worth so much more than you think you are.
- Understand that the market plays a role (pay scale)
- Understand the company you want to work for (Glassdoor)
- Evaluate what you’re making now in comparison to pay scale and Glassdoor
- The market is a good indicator of what to ask for but understand that companies don’t pay everyone equally.
- Always ask for way more than your worth.
- Go to the career and professional development center at whatever college you went to (if you can)
Personal life
- Don’t undervalue yourself. You deserve the fucking world.
- Put yourself first (within reason). Be your own advocate.
- Be vocal about your standards.
