How Bootcamp Grads Can Negotiate Salary Offers

from The Career Change Podcast with Fexingo: Switching Fields, Bootcamps, and Reskilling · host Fexingo

Lucas and Luna dive into a specific skill most career-changers overlook: salary negotiation after a bootcamp. With fresh data from a 2026 industry report, they break down why bootcamp grads leave an average of $12,000 on the table in their first offer. They walk through a real negotiation script from a former retail manager who landed a $95,000 junior developer role — $8,000 above the initial offer. They discuss anchoring, leveraging competing offers, and the one piece of counter-offer language that changes outcomes. No generic advice — just tactical, research-backed moves for anyone reskilling into tech. #SalaryNegotiation #BootcampGrads #TechCareers #Reskilling #CareerChange #Compensation #JuniorDeveloper #OfferLetter #CounterOffer #Anchoring #JobOffer #LucasAndLuna #Careers #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #NegotiationSkills #DataAnalyst #SalaryData Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
