First 90 secondsGlen James· Host0:00
[upbeat music] All right. We've got a question from Kayla. How do you negotiate a pay rise when your pay is industry-standard, but because your role is high volume and compliance-heavier than most of the industry, you feel underpaid? Today I'm talking with Emily Bowen. She is a HR consultant to the stars. She's a [laughs] recruitment operative. She's a work podcaster on This Is Work. She's an all-round legend. You've heard her on the show before. You'd love to see it. You'd love to see her here. She's also the operations manager at Boldside. Em, welcome back to PodVegas.
Emily Bowen· Guest0:53

Glen James· Host1:00

Glen James· Host1:03

Emily Bowen· Guest1:05

Glen James· Host1:06

Emily Bowen· Guest1:13

Glen James· Host1:15

Emily Bowen· Guest1:15
Uh, look, maybe you just wrote my new LinkedIn bio for me, but, um, you've described me in a few ways that I haven't been described before. I think I can add some value here though, so that's the win.
Glen James· Host1:25
So what are we saying to Kayla?
Emily Bowen· Guest1:26
Yeah. So it's interesting. Look, I've had a heads-up on the questions coming at us
