Presented by: Lori Goldstein, Owner, Law Office of Lori A. Goldstein LLC Most successful job seekers spend a large portion of their time focused on networking, resumes and interviewing to find their next job opportunity. But when that new job offer does arrive, sometimes very little time has been spent thinking about what aspects of an offer are most important to you. Whether you’re being asked to sign a comprehensive employment agreement or not, there are often terms of employment that can be negotiated, many of which can significantly impact you while you’re employed and when you eventually leave your employer. This workshop will address some of the potential topics that you may wish to negotiate in order to satisfy your most important needs. Among the issues are:
Base salary and how you might be able to help compensate for a pay reduction
Home office accommodations or telecommuting
Termination with our without cause and severance packages
Restrictive covenants such as non-compete clauses
