Thank you!

Agreed with what others said. No harm.

And honestly, it’s good to start interviewing early in your career with them if you want to work there eventually. A lot of people actually go through 2-3 interview cycles for different roles with FAANG companies before actually getting hired. Even if you don’t get the job this time, getting in their system is a great start, and you won’t hurt future prospects with them by not getting it this time (caveat, unless you do something crazy in the interview...so just behave normally haha)

Good luck!

I’ve been offered a position that I’m really excited about. Their initial offer was 10K more than the top of the salary range they gave me for the position when I asked during the interview process and at the top end of the salary requirements I set for myself. My partner thinks I should still negotiate for more even though I’m happy with the offer. Am I an idiot if I don’t negotiate in this case? Realistically, I don’t think I’d get much more than that, but should I negotiate out of principle?
