Doing Well While Doing Good: Compensation Negotiation for Social Workers

A free, virtual discussion led by Dr. Anna Haley, Associate Professor at Rutgers School of Social Work and hosted by the Alumni Council.

When do I negotiate?  

Do you ask if something’s negotiable?  

How do you know what to ask for?  

Effective negotiation is a key component to securing a job – including one in human services! – that is sustainably and respectfully compensated. But how do you do it well, especially in a field where people are supposed to be “called” to their work? What you say, and when and how you say it, can make a big difference.
