<prompt> Human: If you get a job offer and based on all of your research you find that this is in the high end of the industry standard for this position should you still try to negotiate? I feel like the advice PF always gives it to ALWAYS negotiate for more but is there ever a reason to not just accept the first offer given?  <response>: personal preference based on your own risk tolerance.they may give you more moneythey may say thanks but no thanks and ask the next guy in line if he wants the job.
