Mic Drop Moments

🎤Sandi at (12:05) - I knew I was at least protected if something happened.

🎤Trevor at (12:19) - So you’re saying ask for your severance package in advance. So you’re getting your new job. Part of your negotiation is asking for the severance package. That’s what it is. That’s good stuff.

🎤Trevor at (14:11) - You get the job. They’re like hey we want you, they give you the offer, and you’re like, hey, part of this offer, I would like to have a severance package, right? That is gold.

🎤Sandi at (16:16) - One of those practices should be behavioral interview questions. Because if you can do those, the rest of it’s easy. But if they roll off your tongue, you come off sounding much more confident.

🎤Trevor at (27:07) - The whole severance negotiation, that’s one I haven’t heard before. So I’m going to throw that again.
