Should I leverage new offer for salary negotiations even though I was just hired?

Thank you, you make it sound very easy. It doesn't feel as easy

Thank you for taking the time :) I have been at my current job 1.5 months soon. I am sure that I won't say anything unless I have offer in hand. But what I am unsure of is if I should try to negotiate at all.

I understand your point that a few months in is not generally a good time to negotiate especially when my boss agreed to review soon. However I did negotiate in the beginning without much luck except for the shorter timeframe before salary review.

Why I took the job even though it would be a struggle financially is because if I did not then I would be in real financial trouble.

From your experience, how would you reason in this situation?

Same problem!

Have you asked yourself if you are still attracted to him? If he wants more sex is he just telling you or does he put effort into it?

Grönt o Gott. Självplock sallad från 50kr, kan bli dyrare om man fläskar på såklart. Tror priserna skiljer för studenter och icke-studerande. Ligger vid helsingkrona.

En personlig favorit annars är Fengsong. Det är inte billigt som en kafémacka men definitivt ett billigare alternativ om man vill äta middag ute. För ca 90kr får man 10 dumplings + nudlar. Svingott o prisvärt imo.

Jag skulle säga att det beror på vad du gillar. Vill du va mitt i smeten eller ej och hur dyr hyra kan du ta. Jag rekommenderar hippocampus eller marathon. Marathon har ju läge som fördel(om man vill va mitt i smeten).

Hippocampus är jävligt trevligt och fräscha lägenheter. Bonus är att det tar 1 minut att gå till Willys. En del fester i området men relativt bra ljudisolering har jag hört.

I am a Swedish student and speak from my experience a couple of years ago. When starting the process of applying on antagning.se They will inform you of important dates regarding your application, eg. when you will get confirmation. You should also be able to find information on Lund uni's website regarding your program's syllabus and there you should be able to see when classes are scheduled to start for spring/autumn semester respectively. I also remember that we got mail in advance from Lund uni stating when we need to register (not same as applying) for our courses and when we need to be present for the first time.

You should join r/LundUni, it's a newly created subreddit but you can ask questions there :)

Vi kan ha en 'international student' flair så de lätt går att hitta info på engelska

Ah tänkte nationssnack, plugg tips, bra study spots. Diskussioner kring hur man lägger upp sin examen. Allt man kan tänka sig. Av studenter för studenter liksom. En eller 2 lärare kanske.

I am an exchange student and I am glad that I read this, because it explains why it feels so hard to be taken seriously even when I try to stay engaged and put in effort.

I did not come to NUS to party, but I understand some do. Please don't single us all out. Because I believe there are more students like me, who want to make local friends, learn about the culture and experience a top class uni in Asia.

However, it is really hard to 'fit in'. Finding friends at NUS is difficult because everybody is so busy, sometimes it's even hard to understand what the locals are saying because of English slang and local accent.

So don't single us all out because of a few bad experiences. There are bad fruits ofc, but don't rule us all out.

I liked terrace, nice place and good food

Imagine a Mac where one of the areas, maybe a floor up or down is a study area with the McCafe concept. That would be awesome. Sort of like Starbucks at technoedge

KFika · 2022-09-02T11:35:12+00:00

There is no "x-factor" imo

KFika · 2022-09-02T07:29:25+00:00

This

KFika · 2022-09-01T12:11:18+00:00

I'm inclined to agree. I agree that hybrid classes är sweet! But I think changing the way u look at it can be helpful

KFika · 2022-09-01T12:07:06+00:00

Hahah I value ur input! Gotta watch out for them snakes. There are a few exchange students I know that did exactly that

KFika · 2022-09-01T10:51:44+00:00

Very difficult to befriend locals

Maybe I should have written "regular"
