Can you still get a pay rise in 2023?

<p><strong>Each week BusinessDesk and the NZ Herald’s Cooking the Books podcast tackles a different money problem. Today, it’s the strategies to use to improve your chances of getting a raise. Hosted by Frances Cook.</strong></p> <p>It’s that time of year – the time when many people are getting their performance review. <br>Which means it’s the perfect time to ask for a pay rise. <br>Data from Seek shows that the top three reasons New Zealanders look for a new job are to get more money, progress their career, or find better work-life balance. <br>Your performance review is the place to see whether you could get those things from your current job. <br>But Seek data also shows that last year, 42 per cent of New Zealanders headed into their performance review unprepared. <br>That’s a waste of a golden opportunity to make your working day work better for you. <br>For the latest podcast I talked to Seek career expert Leah Lambert from Relaunch Me.<br>If you have a question about this podcast, or a question you'd like answered in the next one, come and talk to me about it.
