Did you know that 73% of employers expect you to negotiate your salary—but over half of job seekers never even try? According to a CareerBuilder survey, skipping the negotiation step isn’t just common—it’s costly. In fact, 55% of employees accept offers without countering, potentially sacrificing tens of thousands of dollars over their careers.
