<prompt> Human: Currently applying for a Tech position. Went through a round of interviews and towards the end of the day the recruiter asked for my salary. I told her I would get back to her, and she asked me to email it to her. What should my next step be?I want to send her a follow up thank you email tonight and was wondering if I should put the salary I desire there?Ive researched the position and the average is about 90-100k in NYC. I am looking for a junior role so I figured I would ask for 70-90k and negotiate from there. is that too much of a range? Thank you so much.  <response>: Your only chance for negotiation is before you start. Keep that in mind. In my first job I didnt negotiate, thinking Id work myself to a higher salary. That was a mistake. I got great performance reviews but small salary increases.
