How to Negotiate Your First Salary

Join us on July 11 at 1:30 p.m. ET for a webinar for college students and early career journalists on how to negotiate your first salary. Why is negotiating important? Because what you get for that first salary sets the foundation for every other job – and salary – you get after that. Your financial future depends on it!

The discussion will be led by Cindy Perman, formerly of CNBC and WSJ. It will feature:

• Alexandra Carter, who teaches negotiation at Columbia Law School and is the author of the Wall Street Journal bestseller “Ask for More: 10 Questions to Negotiate Anything.”
• Jeffrey Timmermans, director of the Reynolds National Center for Business Journalism at the Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communication at Arizona State University, who previously worked for the Wall Street Journal and Dow Jones Newswires.
• John Yearwood, an award-winning multiplatform journalist and editorial director of diversity & culture at POLITICO.
