<p>This week Jamison and Dave answer these questions:</p>
<ol>
<li>My boss wants me to speak at conferences, but I’m very new to software. What should I do?</li>
<li>How do I get more than a 2% raise? That is the company average.</li>
</ol>
<p>We talked about conferences a bit more way back in <a href="https://softskills.audio/2016/04/11/episode-6-speaking-at-conferences/">episode 6</a>.</p>
<p>We also talked more about playing the salary game in <a href="https://softskills.audio/2016/08/22/episode-23-cto-questions-and-getting-a-raise/">episode 23</a>, which is a technique for sharing salary information with your co-workers.</p>
