Why
would a person turn down a position that offers him a 100% salary increase?
Who does that??? Actually, that's an extreme situation, but we have seen
many candidates over the years make moves for little or no salary increase,
or even take a pay cut, in order to join a situation that can significantly
better their development and help them attain their future career and
financial objectives. With these candidates, they have a very good sense of
what will create earning power for themselves and increase their ability to
attain attractive opportunities over the course of their career. Rather
than pursuing opportunistic, short-lived situations, they identify ones
that will allow them to develop broader skill sets, accumulate outstanding
achievements, and demonstrate the ability to handle greater
responsibilities. As such , they seek out strong platforms that they can be
a part of which add value and create upside for their long-term prospects.
“We'll Pay For Value”
Identifying strong platforms is becoming more and more critical for a one's
ongoing marketability and career success, especially in China today. Just a
few years ago, things were different. Meaning, you saw many instances where
talent was being overvalued and overpaid, as companies hired aggressively
to keep pace with their business growth. For individuals, it was a great
time to be opportunistic. For employers, this made it nearly impossible to
maintain appropriate compensation levels with candidates since much higher
salaries could always be found elsewhere.<For full
