When asked about salary I never provide one, I flip it on them and say something like you are looking fir something that fits your long term goals so I'm negotiable but would like to obtain further info on the position and then ask if they had a range in mind. In this market, it might be hard to negotiate if they gave you the number you were looking for, but if you're not afraid for them to rescind it, give it a try.
I would always try. I think companies still do expect some negotiation. You could maybe frame it like now that you know more about the responsibilities and role, you realized the scope is bigger, etc than when you first talked to them.
That depends.
How desperate are you for the position? I say this because if you're not desperate, then take the chance and negotiate.
If you are desperate and don't see another opportunity in sight, then re-sign yourself to the position as is.
Never be afraid to ask for what you want, but be ready for the consequences, good, bad, or indifferent.
Best of luck 🎲
Uh oh.. is it less than you make now/did make?
I avoid disclosing my salary at all costs, aim higher than I presently make and only negotiate once I have an offer in hand. As others have noted, if you don't NEED the job, give it a try; worst they can say is no.
The problems is they may see it as a bait and switch to get the job, then negotiate out of their range. The other consideration is the job market right now. Their #2 & #3 candidates may be happy with the pay - so it's definitely a gamble.
If you must accept the job, get it writing in the offer letter that you request a salary review in 6 months with an increase based on performance and value provided.
That final option is just be honest - "Hey I messed up, I'm beyond excited for this opportunity but I really need to be close to $XX,XXX/year to make this work for me - how close can you get to that?" This is at least a middle ground and helps you get the most you can upfront.
A future review is great but doesn't guarantee you'll get the increase. My best advice is advocate for yourself and negotiate. If you need work, take this job and keep looking - some work is better than none.
Good luck, you got this!
that's not enough Xs.
Accidentally?
Is the offer lower than what you asked for?
I think you should try! Or go for a larger yearly bonus or equity to make up some of the loss.
