Got a Job Offer? Great. Here's What to Do Next.

You survived the interview process, edged out the competition, and finally landed a job offer you're truly excited about. Congrats! But before you start designing your new cubicle in your head, here are a few steps you'll need to take prior to accepting.

Getting a job offer is always exciting, but before you get too stoked, you'll need to take a look at your proposed salary and make sure it's reasonable. Now, if you've been in the same industry for quite some time and are looking at a salary that's more than what you were previously making, you can probably take the offer and run with it. But if you're new to your industry, or the workforce in general, you'll want to do some research to avoid winding up underpaid. Salary.com and Glassdoor are two good online resources that can help you get started. You can also try connecting with other people in your industry to get a sense of the going rate for your role.
