Great tip! Make sure your manager is aware of the value you have added to the team/organization. Also check out provincial salary guide.

An important thing to remember is that your current rate may be based on a level of success/achievements that you think is above expectations. Your achievements are a great demonstration of what you can do but remember that on a go forward you are being paid for what you will do, not what you have done.

Market value is a good resource to see if you are in for a raise. Also, agree with the ROI on you. Have you eanred a raise? Doing above and beyond at a constant rate? Great tips!

Good advice! Many of our clients require a business case to be presented with exactly those criteria by the contractor for a raise. If you really think you earned it, you should be able to tell your manager how/why.

Great advice!

Lot of times current market situation dictates rates as well. In a good market its easy to ask for a raise, but in a bad market, it's the work you have done will fetch you a better rate.

We advise all of our consultants -when asking for a raise mid contract or at extension time - build a business case - include info of any added responsibilities, increased workload etc. NOTE: do not bring up how much your colleagues on the project are making - you agreed to rate at submission and interview time and signed the contract. ,

Super good tip!

Perfect - its a strong tip for getting what you want out of any situation.

Great tip Malvina!

always try to quantify your worth when negotiating, its always easier to justify your reasoning.

Awesome tip, thanks Malvina! Always be prepared with concrete examples on how you add/added value to the team. You should be able to support your ask and don't be afraid to boast a little!
