Summary

Before you send out your next job application, you need to research standard salaries for your industry and position. It’s easy to be so determined to land a new job that you don’t stop to consider what your career and financial goals are. Find Your Dream Job guest Anica John says that you need to enter a job search strategically, playing to your strengths and desires rather than settling for any role that you're offered. Anica also shares that talking to people who are hiring for similar positions at other companies can help you calculate an accurate salary range. About Our Guest: Anica John (https://www.linkedin.com/in/anicajohn/) is a federal litigator turned serial technology entrepreneur. She’s the founder of Level Up 90 (https://www.levelup90.com/).

If you wait for employers to bring up salary, you’re wasting your time and energy.
