Received an entry level media offer and figured I might as well try to negotiate for a higher salary even if it comes to nothing. Any tips?

Just add $5K to whatever their offer is and you should be good.

Don't reach to far. 10% above offer is probably too much.

Just ask for what you want to be making within reason of the market rate. Do your research, see what people of the same level are making in your area. Never hurts to ask/sharpen your negotiation skills.

Someone here asked recently which candidate would be better for workers like us who are here legally with all the credentials, paying US taxes just like Americans. I kind of laughed inside and I still do. Why even ask? Did any other administration excessively hate us this much to the point the rules changed substantially gazillion times a year? Let’s be real. This is nothing more than direct targeting of us. How can anyone not know which is at least less worse? 😂
