Email the hiring manager, tell him you have a number of other firms who are ready to go, but you thought there was some good chemistry between you, and that he needs to act immediately if he wants you. When he throws an offer at you ask for 20% extra and see if you meet him at 10%.
If he can't swing HR or the salary, you don't want to work for a wet noodle and you've now dodged a bullet.
- chiefalchemist 5y ago> you've now dodged a bullet. This is a key point that too many of us lose sight of. Getting into a bad relationship is never a positive. When you're (semi) stuck in a bad relationship you'll struggle to find the time and energy to pursue a better relationship.
- pelasaco 5y agogreat answer! I had to check your profile to be sure that you weren't my dad (that's the kind of answer he would give me) :)
- lordnacho 5y agoHaha thanks. But seriously, when you get an offer, test it. If it falls apart as soon as you try to negotiate anything, run away. This is even if it's your dream job that you think you'll never need to change and pays you way more than you wanted, because if you do like I say and you lose it, you don't lose anything. Porcelain jobs are the worst.
