Negotiating a salary is a situation I have never been in as I have always told them up front before interviewing how much I want to get paid after finding out the salary range. Whenever a recruiter calls, I ask the salary first and tell them where I want to be on that range before even sending a recent resume. Not that negotiating for more if I have several offers would not be great, just not something I have experienced. I interview, they already know my number as I have already asked the hiring salary range and told them what I want. If I pass the interview they offer me my original request and we move forward. I could see how if one was interviewing with multiple companies and had multiple offers how one could seek to play them against one another for a potentially higher amount. Just hasn't happened to me.

- scarface74 8y agoThat’s the easy part - don’t apply blindly. I’ve always gone through local recruiters that have relationships with the hiring manager. They know the salary range, the interview process, and where other candidates fail because they get feedback from both the candidate and the hiring manager.
