Summary
Today we are answering questions about contract negotiation. It is important to know what parts of a contract you can negotiate and when you likely won't have any control over your contract. It is critical to understand the details of your contract and we highly recommend having your contract reviewed by a professional. https://www.whitecoatinvestor.com/contract-negotiation-and-review/. You want to be crystal clear on your compensation, who pays for the tail, time off, sick time, maternity or paternity leave, and call structure etc. These are all things you can and should negotiate. We also cover a few more questions about student loans. The student loan landscape is ever changing but recently it has become easier to qualify for PSLF. If you are one of the lucky people who now qualify we recommend applying no matter how much student debt you have left.
