Had an interview for a wire transfer analyst. The recruiter asked my salary range. I said $75k - $80k he said it was too high the position is for $65k but since I have experience he would send it to the hiring manager to see. I got called for my final view next week. I live in NJ what should the lowest I ask for? I have 4 yoe in retail banking.

Let them make the first salary offer. If less than 75k, I would politely say:
“The minimum salary I am considering right now is $75k which is consistent with other roles I have been looking at with Citi and Chase. I understand this might take some time to get approved, but given my 4 years of experience and strong qualifications, it seems like a reasonable ask. Please let me know if you are able to accommodate.”

If they come back with a lower amount then you’ll have to decide what to do…..

Good Luck - I’m rooting for you! Be sure to come back and let us know how it works out!

Great advice!!

$75-$80k. They will lowball you, no reason to help them. Also, benchmark what a good salary is for this job. If more than $80k, have your reasons ready why you should make more. If you are happy with $70k, take it once you negotiate for it.

You've given them your range, they've tried to manage your expectations. Fact is you told them you want $75K+, they said they are thinking $65K and knowing the mismatch they still decided to call you back.

If they offer below $75K negotiate upwards and have a list of reasons to back up why you are worth that $75K (and why its market related)

like

If you gave them your range and they decided to continue, then that means that they have accepted the conditions. Also, they are considering you for a higher position since you have years of experience.

If you work currently just say you’re currently making 75 that’s why it is the minimum you’d accept but you really want 80. I don’t know what you earn now but you are in finance you are not working for a non profit so if they cannot afford you, you gotta move on to a company who can.

Always ask for more!

Don’t sell yourself short. It’s the great resignation. You’ll get 75-80. Be firm, you got this. If not a better opportunity will come up shortly after. Always reach never settle.

Stick to your price.
I had someone want me to lower my value by $15k. I said no. Four months later they hired me AT MY PRICE. They couldn’t find anyone willing to take the job for the lower amount.

Do not take lower than 75k

Why are they giving you capped potential don’t you think your worth more?

You have already negotiated by giving your salary range. The only thing they can do is match your expectation which they did. You can still ask for an increase after 6-12months.

CS is a s(t)inking ship, stick with WF.

I wouldn’t take less than 75k because that’s what you’re worth in your eyes

Hoping for an update from the OP!

With 4yoe your min. Should be $80k

Interviewed for Deloitte S&A Tech Strategy SC and got a verbal offer for Consultant instead. I negotiated the offer to 120K salary and 10K signing bonus. I’m a boomerang with 4 years ERP consulting but this past year I’ve been doing DEI Consulting. Spoke with former colleagues who rejoined Deloitte and got a much higher offer for SC. How do I go back to the recruiter to negotiate further? I suggested that I’d probably sign but need time to think. Now I’d like to go back and request 140k salary.

My main goal with this is to ensure this looks good on my CV. My thought is a Product Manager role seems more senior to a product owner. Any thoughts on this and any advice on how to approach this?
