You might as well try. If you can impress upon them that you're reliable and you'll show up eager to work, you might be able to get a little more. The key is to ask for something reasonable. If they're offering 15 you can counter with 18 and see how it goes. If you get anything more than 15 that's a win.

Entry level roles like this don't really have the ability to negotiate.

Genuine question, what leverage do you have to negotiate with? Typical answers are experience, knowledge, and ability to show value. Being new to the workforce, you are likely in a position to simply accept or deny what they offer, as you aren't yet in a position to be able to negotiate.

Hi, places like Dillon can't always negotiate because their corporate office sets the pay rates. The people that said you don't have any experience to show your worth to an employer are right. You're best route is to start there, work your butt off, be on time, don't call out at all, stay off your phone, stay busy and not stand around talking, and always be helpful to customers. After a few months, then you can ask for a raise.

Interviewing at a dream company, and right from the first interview the recruiter told me we are way off on salary expectations. This was a little bit expected, as the role is requiring a few years less experience than I have and also in a much cheaper market. They already told me the salary range during this first call, but wondering if they like me enough and I get an offer, how I might approach negotiating for more. I would be making much less than I do now, but it is a dream company.
