Rora Reviews 162

They helped me negotiate very effectively, just as advertised.

Rora was a godsend. I was preparing to go into a high-level negotiation and Rora elevated me to that position. Without Rora, I would not have had the success that I did. My coach was with me all the way. He got up to speed quickly, agreed on overall strategy, and put tactics in place. With him, I built up my confidence and was prepared to deal with the most challenging situation. I learned so much throughout the process. I know I will face future negotiations and Rora will be my go-to resource.

I had a great experience with Rora. As someone who is new to the negotiation process, Rora's service helped me immensely in understanding the negotiation process including negotiation strategies, things to do / not to do, the tactics that recruiters use when negotiating, current market conditions (i.e: am I getting a fair offer), etc. They were extremely responsive through chat, responding to my questions within hours and even responded to my questions even on weekends. Super awesome, I would use Rora's service again.

Worked closely with Arian and he was exceptional in guiding how to negotiate. He also patiently shared his thought process to teach how he is thinking about different situations and how to maximize the leverage.

Overall, I was able to successfully negotiate the compensation on various offers and had a great experience working with the RORA team. They were always just a text away on whatsapp for any need.

This was my first experience applying to a corporate role in the tech industry after years in academia. My Rora advisor, Nicole, was absolutely incredible. She was patient and prepared me for every step of the process. The document library was invaluable and it was just so nice to have someone encouraging me to fight for my worth. I would not have felt comfortable negotiating without Rora.

Collaborating with Arian was a fantastic experience. His expertise and empathy significantly contributed to guiding me effectively through my negotiation process. He endowed me with valuable skills that I am confident will benefit me in future endeavors. The most impactful aspect of working with Arian, I believe, was the heightened confidence it instilled in my decision-making abilities. This newfound assurance was pivotal in allowing me to engage promptly and assertively with the potential employer, working towards a resolution with clarity and conviction.

The most valuable part of working with Arian and Rora was the relationship I built with the hiring managers and team for the role I ended up taking. Following their process made it very clear which was the right choice out of the two options I was considering. I am fully confident that I made the best choice for my career and for my family.

My advisor Arian, has been very supportive and responsive throughout the entire process. I got about a 27% raise from the initial offer, and I genuinely think that I would not been able to win this amount of raise on my own. Arian not only helped me to get a higher number but also helped me to maintain my peace of mind amid a stressful negotiation process.

Arian's support was amazing throughout my job hunting process. He helped me to strategize how to proceed with each company, synchronize my timeline, use the right language for communication, and feel confident. Having Arian's help allowed me to focus on technical side of process without worrying about the rest.

Julie and Sameer were fantastic. They coached me to a huge increase on my preferred offer by leveraging a much worse offer against it. They helped me say just the right things (and not say the wrong things) to make this seemingly impossible task possible.

I was initially hesitant as to whether the service would be worth it or whether I could do a good job myself. In hindsight, it was worth every penny several times over.

My experience with them has been overall positive! I started using the service at an offer stage of a place I really wanted to go, but I wanted to negotiate the offer first. The coaching through the process was great!

My coach's wealth of experience pushed me beyond my comfort zone, leading to significant personal growth. The ability to communicate effectively in high-stakes situations has not only boosted my confidence but has also become a valuable skill set applicable to various aspects of my professional life. I now approach discussions with a newfound assurance, fostering constructive dialogue for the collective benefit of all parties involved. This invaluable journey has undoubtedly enhanced my workplace interactions, paving the way for more productive and positive outcomes. I am grateful for the skills and mindset she instilled in me, making me a more effective and self-assured communicator.

They gave me the precise words to negotiate a higher level and higher paying job that revealed the value I could bring to the company that it did not recognize during the interview.

I worked with Sameer and he helped me genuinely (without negoatiating pricing with me as my situation was unique) with the intent to help me negotiate a fair salary.

Arian walked me through the whole negotiation process, carefully explaining strategies at reasoning behind them at every step. Final result – double the initial offer.

I had a really great experience working with Jordan over the course of 3 months during my negotiation journey. I signed up for Rora in a pretty sticky situation: a company was pressing me to sign an offer within a few days, and I didn't have any other offers. Jordan effectively helped me push the deadline significantly, and suggested me a number of great strategies that not only helped me better understand the role, but also helped me buy time while I interviewed at more places and received more offers. There were several HR delays over the course of the 3 months, which often brought me into delicate situations related to deadlines. Jordan supported me throughout this stressful period, and helped me draft several creative emails (often at odd hours due to time sensitivity!) to ensure I did not lose out on any opportunity. Understanding how the recruiting process in big tech companies works, along with learning effective negotiation from Jordan has been the favorite part of my journey - along with the great compensation increases I'd never imagined were possible!

Throughout the journey I felt like Rora was someone I could fully trust, and Jordan constantly motivated me to advocate for myself and negotiate effectively. I am really grateful for all the support and would strongly recommend Rora to everyone applying for industrial jobs in AI!

Julie was with me every step of the way, which gave me a lot of confidence in discussing compensation with my HR representative and technical managers. It was extremely useful to have a neutral sounding board for navigating what was my first job search. Julie offered lots of insights into the tactics and ways that companies negotiated, which help somewhat even the playing field for negotiating my compensation.

I had a great experience working with Michelle and Nicole during my recent job search. They provided constant support and advice throughout my interview and negotiation process, and helped me get two job offers, as well as an internal transfer offer at my (now former) company. During the negotiation process, Rora helped me negotiate very large increases in my compensation (Offer A: 16% cash, 58% equity increase. Offer B: 12% cash, 56% equity increase). I ended up accepting an offer at a startup I am very excited about. I strongly recommend Rora to anyone going through a job search process!

My advisor Nicole was a great resource during my negotiation. When I felt nervous during the process, she helped me analyze the situation and view it in an unbiased way. She told me to be patient and not worry too much, and she was right - in the end, things worked out the way we wanted.

Increased my salary by 60%! I could not have done so without the support of Jordan Sale. I had been job hunting for 10 months post layoff and this was the only offer I received. Jordan helped me strengthen my messaging and my now-employer applauded me on the format. I couldn't be happier in my new role and am so grateful for Jordan at Rora!
