When negotiating salary is it ever possible to have a job offer rescinded because you asked for too much? I have a number in mind but want to really think it through before I give it.

Anything is possible. If you make a ludicrously high counter or deliver it with absolutely zero tact, I can certainly see the offer getting pulled. But if you're professional and reasonable, there shouldn't be much, if any, risk. How far over their offer is your number?

Yes. Give a range of what you’re looking for. For example, $100-120k, vs a set number. How far off is your number from the one they offered? Do you have facts to back up why you’re worth the higher amount?

I have heard of it happening to people. It has never happened to me but I usually only try to push for 5-10k more. I don't know how far people try to push it before it gets resxinded.

3 YOE in Marketing through internships in college, followed by 2 years Financial Operations/Data Tools full-time. I got an offer for $75K at TekSystems for a Market Analyst role. I gave them a range of $70-75K, so they gave the max. But I am questioning asking for a bit more given insurance is apparently on the higher-end and I want to ensure I didn't low-ball myself.

Just to note, this is about a 25% increase compared to what I am currently making.
