Query:
Hello. Hope all is well,
My name is Shawn. I am a writer for CNBC Grow, a vertical
dedicated to telling news and practical stories about millennial
money. I'm working on a story about Walmart announcing last week
that it would be giving 165,000 employees a pay raise between
$15 and $30:
https://www.fastcompany.com/90552091/walmart-is-giving-165000-employees-a-pay-rise-between-15-and-30-per-hour.
Using this as a jump off point, we are looking to walk young
people through how they can ask for a raise at their job, too.
I'm hoping to receive a few responses to the below points that
we will use as quotes in the story:
-- How can building your own skillset put you in a better
position to ask for/get a raise?
-- What sorts of steps can you take to learn your own
professional value, financially speaking? (I.e., salary
calculator, interviewing in similar fields.)
-- How to you actually ask for the raise, and when is the right
time, considering companies may be cash strapped due to
Covid-19?
-- Anything you want to add? What is you official title to be
used in the piece?
Please send inquires to: shawn.carter@nbcuni.com All responses
will be reviewed within the time frame, though there will be
some flexibility. Granted we decide to use your quote in the
story, I will be in touch personally on the details.
Thank you so much and looking forward,
