Objective

In this four-hour workshop, female students and graduates learn what is important in salary negotiations. They learn suitable arguments and strategies – and why they should always keep an eye on salary developments in the long run.

Content

What am I worth and how do I successfully negotiate my salary at the start of a job? The first salary negotiation can be challenging. Studies show that even in highly qualified fields, female graduates start out with lower salaries than male graduates do – twelve per cent on average – and despite often better qualifications and grades. And this income gap increases year by year. But you can avoid the gender pay gap: With good preparation and the right strategy.

Target Audience

Female students and graduates

For us, women are more diverse than a biological gender. We understand women to include all individuals who identify as female. The event management system currently only maps the binary gender system. If this causes problems for you, please contact us!
