“I am very excited about being part of your team, but according to my research the salary is below the ongoing salary market. Would your budget permit $55,000 instead of $50,000?”

“I am really looking forward to being part of your organization, and I am confident that I can make a strong contribution to your organization. However, the salary range is below what I had in mind, considering the level of responsibilities this job entails. Does your budget allow a salary that is closer to the mid $50’s rather than the low $50’s?”
