6:37 am
new york. good morning jill. >> good morning. >> what is expect in tomorrow's report. >> reporter: well, we had a rotten report for march just 126,000 jobs created so in this report we are looking for a bounce back, probably 220,000 jobs. unemployment rates should go down to 5.4 percent. now by the the way despite that disappoint ing reading last month the economy is adding over 3.1 million jobs in the past year a alone. so we are doing a lot better in the labor market. >> all right. we hear this is a surprise that could becoming for workers what is that surprise. >> wow okay, we are hoping and not sure but the the economy is certainly poised to deliver something americans have been looking for for just about eight years how about a raise yeah. nice right. the recent data is showing that compensation increased in the first quarter by 2.6 percent from a year ago. 2.8 percent in the private sector really got peoples hopes now. this is the the best pace
6:38 am
since 2008. just remember during the last expansion private sector wages were about 3 percent annual increases so believe it or not we are getting close to getting back to normal. not there yet. >> so does this mean that workers can actually negotiate better pay packages. >> reporter: check this out according to a career builder.com survey. are, two thirds say they are willing to negotiate salary offers. if you are ready to ask, here is a bit of the tip. there is emerging evidence that using a range rather than a single number may really help you increase your total comp. set a good number, at bottom end equivalent to the one you would have used as a single dollar offer and make the higher number 20 percent. if you are out there looking around you want a 50 you this dollars salary you suggest a range 50 to 60,000 to your potential boss and psychologically the boss is very unlikely to go below that $50,000 range.
6:39 am
