Just got an event planning internship, how much should I be making?

by admin on March 24, 2010

I currently work as an event planner and make .75 an hour. This jobs is ending soon so I found another one and was offered a job at .00 an hour. I am going to be a senior in college but I have over three years experience already in event planning. Should I try to negotiate on the wages? If so, what’s a comfortable way to approach that?

You can always try – but as an intern, you are limited – you are expected to take part of your salary as ‘experience’

if you want to negotiate, simply tell them that you have experience that you feel is worth a little more cash…list some things that you did VERY well that you know will benefit them and see what happens – the worse they can say is no.
