Frequently asked questions
Should I mention a specific amount?
It's usually better to ask for a review and discuss numbers in the meeting. If your company expects a figure, research typical salaries for your role first.
When is the best time to ask for an increment?
Before or during appraisal season, or after you've delivered a clear result or taken on new responsibilities.
