Default Re: More job advice - salary negotiations

Accept the $1000 decrease, but stand firm. Make it clear that it's the minimum you'll accept to make the move. This shows that you're willing to work with them, and it's a good compromise between demanding the original amount and letting them jerk you around even more. It sounds like this is still more money than the raise you asked for, so you're not giving up too much.

(I'm graduating in a week and I don't have a job yet. Take my advice for what it's worth. If my play here is terrible, please explain why.)
