Salary History
"Walk me through your salary over the last five years."
Enter your base salary for each year. Use your local currency β€” we're looking at growth, not absolute figures. Leave blank if you weren't working that role.

CURRENCY
"How long have you been in your industry β€” and how long in your current role?"
This tells us whether your compensation trajectory matches where you should be at this stage.
TOTAL YEARS IN YOUR INDUSTRY / PROFESSION
YEARS IN YOUR CURRENT ROLE / AT CURRENT EMPLOYER
YOUR CURRENT SENIORITY LEVEL
"When did you last receive a salary increase β€” and how did it happen?"
How you got your last rise tells us as much as when you got it.
WHEN WAS YOUR LAST SALARY INCREASE?
In the last 12 months
1–2 years ago
2–3 years ago
3–5 years ago
More than 5 years ago
HOW DID YOU GET IT?
I negotiated it directly
It came with a promotion
It was an automatic / cost-of-living increase
I moved to a new employer
I haven't had one
"How do you approach the conversation about pay?"
Most people leave money on the table not because they lack value β€” but because they never ask.
HAVE YOU EVER FORMALLY NEGOTIATED YOUR SALARY?
βœ“ Yes, more than once I've actively pushed for more
β—Ž Once I've done it but not consistently
βœ— No, never I've accepted what I was offered
β—‘ I tried, it didn't work I pushed back but didn't succeed
DO YOU KNOW YOUR MARKET RATE RIGHT NOW?
β—ˆ Yes, precisely I benchmark regularly
β—‰ Roughly I have a general idea
β—‡ Not really I haven't checked recently
◐ No idea I've never looked into it
"What does your total compensation actually look like?"
Base salary is only part of the picture. Bonus, equity, and benefits are often where the real negotiation opportunity sits.
YOUR CURRENT ANNUAL BONUS (% OF BASE, OR LEAVE 0)
% of base
DO YOU RECEIVE EQUITY / LONG-TERM INCENTIVES?
Yes β€” significant (>20% of base equivalent)
Yes β€” modest (<20% of base equivalent)
No equity or LTI
I'm not sure what I'm entitled to
HOW WOULD YOU RATE YOUR BENEFITS PACKAGE?
Excellent β€” well above market
Good β€” broadly in line with peers
Weak β€” below what I'd expect
Minimal or none
"What is holding you back β€” or driving you forward?"
Your relationship with money and self-worth shapes every compensation conversation you'll ever have.
WHICH BEST DESCRIBES YOUR CURRENT SITUATION?
I believe I'm underpaid relative to my value
I think I'm fairly paid but there's more available
I genuinely don't know where I stand
I'm well compensated but want to protect it
WHAT IS YOUR PRIMARY GOAL RIGHT NOW?
Negotiate a pay rise in my current role
Get promoted and close the compensation gap
Move to a new employer and reset my market value
Understand my situation before making any moves
