Salary transparency laws expose the gap between what jobs pay and what you've been accepting. Ontario's new rules require posted salary bands for positions under $200,000, with ranges capped at $50,000. That's a lot of room to leave money on the table if you don't know how to use it.

Shane and Candy Ho track what changes when the numbers are visible. Candy explains how to connect transferable skills to top-of-band pay, why desperation doesn't have to mean settling, and how to reframe being overqualified as a selling point instead of a liability. Shane shares the negotiation tactic that got him hired (complete with Brinks truck references) and why he said yes to a warehouse job that paid minimum wage while searching for his next career move.

Discover how to use posted bands as a professional development tool instead of just a number. Learn why survival jobs can accelerate progression when you're honest about the timeline. Understand the conversation that turns "you're too experienced for this" into "here's why hiring me puts everyone ahead."
