Each week, BusinessDesk and the NZ Herald’s Cooking the Books podcast tackles a different money problem. Today, it’s strategies to improve your chances of getting a raise. Hosted by Frances Cook.
It’s that time of year – the time when many people are getting their performance reviews.
Which means it’s the perfect time to ask for a pay rise.
Data from Seek show that the top-three reasons New Zealanders looking for a new job are to get more money, progress their career, or find a better work-life balance.
Your performance review is the place to see whether you could get those things from your current job.
But Seek data also show that, last year, 42% of New Zealanders went into their performance review unprepared.
That’s a waste of a golden opportunity to make your working day work better for you.
For the latest podcast, I talked to Seek career expert Leah Lambert from Relaunch Me.
