Salary negotiation

When I first interviewed for a job the recruiter told me the max salary for the role in the phone screen. Now I have been through multiple interviews and am getting an offer. Is it OK to ask for more?

You can always ask

Of course

Always. I’m a recruiter and that’s something I expect to happen with every candidate offer

Do you have a padding prepared to offer them more? Or would you first hold strong to the original number?

Yes. Salary is always negotiable. Worst they can say is no.

If I don’t make them cry during salary negotiations - that means I didn’t do a good job lol 😂
