My last serious romantic relationship was one of the most important relationships of my life. I was nervous when I told Cooper about my close relationship with Moses.

Job hunters are facing a slowing labor market, but does that mean they should accept an offer without negotiating items like salary or remote work? You can use those preferences to filter your job search and to inform your discussions with a prospective employer. How to counter an offerIf your preferred job arrangement, such as fully remote work, isn't a complete deal-breaker, Goredema encourages you to continue the interview process until you receive a job offer. An offer in hand puts you in a "much stronger" position to negotiate the terms of your employment. Then say, 'Now, I'd really like to discuss next steps, and that includes compensation,'" or whichever aspect you're negotiating.
