“If you’re wondering how to negotiate a higher salary after a job offer, congratulations: You’re aiming higher than many job candidates ever do,” says Katie Shonk. “It’s common for prospective employees to accept whatever offer the would-be employer puts forth without negotiating for more.

In fact, because they expect job candidates to negotiate salary, employers typically offer somewhat less than they are willing to pay.”
