Do you negotiate an offer even if they tell you prior to the interviews that x amount is set in stone and they cannot go any higher? The offer would be a low ball somewhat, about 8k under the median.

Why would you interview with a company that from the start you already know undervalues you?

Try anyway, but be ready for disappointment.

I’d still negotiate, given I’ve extract what I need to know from the interviews to display how I will contribute to it. Is the 8k 12-20% of the base?

Good point

So, you’ve reached the stage of your career where you care more about cashing a fat paycheck than making “creative ads”. You’d rather have the resources and free time to fulfill your creative itch outside of work than try to sell the next big idea to an 28 year old marketing manager with an annual budget of 150k. How do you make the absolute most money as a copywriter while still working a 9-5? Asking for... a... friend?

Hello,
I got an offer in Singapore for 4k SGD per month. I have 3.4 years of experience in IT Audit and also did masters in specialization with Information Security and hold two certs. I currently earn approx 12 L per annum ( fixed + bonus) in India. Do you think it's a good offer. Also my expectations were 6k SGD or more per month. But the HR said I would never be able to find that in the market.
