Salary Benchmarking Tools & Negotiation Basics

The PDF holds this page's summary, my note and the link — one page you can keep or print.

What it is

Slide guide to the tools that tell you what a role actually pays — Levels.fyi for role-level comp, Numbeo for cost-of-living context, Glassdoor for company intel — plus the mindset and mechanics of negotiating an offer.

In plain terms

This guide reviews tools for researching pay rates and local living costs. You can use it to determine your minimum compensation and prepare to negotiate your salary and benefits.

Why I recommend it

Pair one role-level pay tool with one cost-of-living tool before you ever name a number.
