Show gratitude for the offer and ask if there’s any wiggle room on salary based on the initial shared range and your experience. Then make the ask to HR and back it up with the value you can bring
Completely agreed! This is what I would do
ALWAYS ask for 10K more than you want! I have had plenty of jobs tell me, "That is on the high-end, for this position..", my reply is "You can hire top talent or mediocre talent, the choice is yours." Don't settle, be aggressive in your negotiations and don't be afraid to walk away.
Say you'd be happier at $65k for the role, and ask if they would they consider this number instead.
How .much did they end up offering you after you both agreed on $65,000 ?
They noted your request and then gave their offer. Them “seeming fine” and officially agreeing are two different things. I would say you are still able to ask for more.
Their was a verbal agreement and then they offer the person less than the $65k on paper, so you dont see that as a breach of trust on the companies part ? I do ! I would think Jezz, what a Low Ball offer, Cheap, Lying, "piece of work" they are a d the I would tell them Oh, you must have forgotten that we had a Cerbal agreement at $65K, but again the original author of this post didnt bother to tell us what they offered them below the $65K, so perhaps it's just a made up post.
Be polite and advocate for yourself
You respond by saying you’d like to discuss closer to your initial salary you brought up.
