Ignite Night: Negotiating Your First Offer
A practical evening for students and early-career women on asking for more, and getting it, in your first job offer.
The evening
Ask once. Ask well.
Most women accept their first offer as it comes. This workshop is for the ones who won’t. We’ll cover what’s negotiable, what to say, and how to say it without wrecking the relationship before it starts.
You’ll practise out loud with women who’ve hired hundreds of graduates, and leave with a script you can actually use.
Who it’s for
Students, fresh graduates and women in their first few years of work. Holding an offer right now? Bring it. We’ll help.
How it runs
- 6:30pmFood, drinks and finding your table
- 7:00pmWhat’s really negotiable, from the people who make the offers
- 7:45pmPractice rounds in pairs, with live feedback
- 8:45pmQuestions, then stay and chat
