3 mistakes you can easily avoid during your next salary negotiation:
1. Revealing your current salary

Did you know that in New York, it's illegal to ask a candidate their current salary?

It's not the same in Europe, but this doesn't mean you have to reveal your salary during the recruitment process.
It doesn't matter what your current salary is. What matters in a negotiation is what you want and what you are worth.

So be the first to bring up pay, and talk only about your desired salary.
2. Not knowing when to shut up

As @Fotiniicon said: “it’s better to be brief and firm, to breathe, and then be quiet! Don't worry about silence. We often underestimate how much more credible we appear when we do this.”

Avoid "I think", "maybe," etc. Silence is good!
@Fotiniicon 3. Coming unprepared

Knowing the market is a great advantage in salary negotiation.
