Is it bad form to ask for relocation compensation after having received contract?

manpreet Best Answer 2 years ago

I remember taking on the phone to HR, they told me the href="https://forum.tuteehub.com/tag/general">general href="https://forum.tuteehub.com/tag/terms">terms of the offer, then asked if I'd like to clarify anything. At the time, I couldn't think of anything particular.

Now that I've received the contract (haven't signed it yet), I've just realized it would be beneficial if I had a monthly href="https://forum.tuteehub.com/tag/stipend">stipend for relocation compensation.

Should I ask for it? I feel like it might be bad form because I should have asked about it before...then again, I'm super new to the href="https://forum.tuteehub.com/tag/workforce">workforce so I don't really know.

You can ask for anything, but the best time to do this is when you are negotiating the contract. Once you have signed it, you have agreed to the employment terms and really don't have a ton of leverage.

Since you haven't signed the contract yet, now is the time to negotiate!!
