I am a new grad and trying to join Dell/EMC, found the base salary low (99k), while talking to the recruiter about it he told me to write an email with how much I want and justify it why. Don’t have any other offer at this point to negotiate but is interviewing. Can someone suggest what to write in the email?

    Write her an email and ask for a template for the email and sample emails, and also how often they ask people to write such email, and the demography of candidate such request are made to.

    Remember always reply a BS with BS, don't write any email explaining why they should pay more, get another offer for sure. And I hope you already have a written offer from them.

    You might want to include research from various sources on how much more those pay at entry level

    Talk about how much graduates from your school make if you’re asking for more (assuming it’s more).

    Use another offer for leverage if possible.

    Talk about cost of living expenses.

    Dick move by the recruiter though.
