How to approach the review season

Lawyers Weekly Podcast Network

In this special episode of The Lawyers Weekly Show, produced in partnership with Naiman Clarke, we explore how best candidates can navigate reviews with their employers regarding salary increases and promotions and what might constitute best practice if one is searching for a new role. Host Jerome Doraisamy speaks with Naiman Clarke director Kristina Steele about emerging trends based on market research and conversations with candidates and clients, current market sentiment, the “wrong” reasons that candidates might put themselves out into the market, against the backdrop of power shifting back towards employers, as well as why candidates need to be pragmatic and realistic about their prospects for higher salaries, better titles, or being better offer elsewhere. Kristina also delves into the questions that candidates can ask of themselves if they do make the decision to enter the market, how employees can and should be communicating with their superiors as they complete their reviews, what might constitute best practice for employers in the current climate, and what she sees as an exciting new financial year ahead in legal recruitment.
