Starting point
Why I kept settling for the bottom of the range in data analyst interviews
I always froze up whenever money came up. In final interviews with recruiters I'd settle for the bottom of the range, simply because I didn't know how to make the case for my worth.
With Cue
A live copilot for real-time salary negotiation
In the final round with a fintech company I used the live copilot. When the recruiter asked about my expectations, the AI highlighted my key achievements from my resume on screen (15% metric growth) and suggested a phrase to negotiate smartly: 'Based on my experience optimizing the DWH, I'm looking at a range starting from X.'
Result
A 30% pay bump — the recruiter agreed to my terms
I repeated the AI's arguments. The recruiter agreed to my terms. The result: a salary 30% higher than what I'd asked for at my previous job.
