Prepare for a Salary Review Conversation
Added 2026-11-02
Bring three things: outcomes, market data and a clear ask.
My company is running a salary review and I need to prepare (context below). Do: 1) pick the three outcomes that best support an adjustment, each with a number; 2) frame the market range for my role and where I sit, using data I provide; 3) make a clear ask — the amount and effective date — not "whatever the company decides"; 4) prepare for two likely responses, budget freeze and a limited band, with my replies; 5) close with one line that secures a next step. Under 300 words.

How to use
薪资对话要带数据,不带情绪。
Try tweaking it
- Rewrite each experience as action + result + verifiable number.
- Have it gather the job requirements first, then rewrite against them.
What you should get
- Rewritten bullets: action, result, number
- Likely follow-up questions and how to answer
Common mistakes
- Asking it to "optimise the CV", and every line starts sounding like a template.
- Adding projects you never did — it falls apart in the first interview.
How to check the output
- Each line is action + result + number, and you can defend the details.
- Nothing you did not actually do has been added.
Where it works
- Good for: rewriting experience as action + result + verifiable metric for CVs and interviews.
- Watch out: metrics must be real; AI can phrase them, not invent them.
