<prompt> Human: Hi all, I currently work for a large Fortune 500 company as a businessdata analyst. Ive been here for about 1.5 years, my first job out of college math major. My current salary is 47k before taxes. Im currently in the process of interviewing for other positions within the company would be a job level higher than I currently am, but not on my current team. Im not sure if Ill have to negotiate during my next round of interviews, but I want to be prepared in case I have to negotiate.Im a very quick learner, and have a small background in programming. I wont go into details, but everyone I work with and support loves me. When using PayScale, it tells me Im worth 60k with my current skillsexperience. My company publishes target salary ranges for your job level, and Im currently sitting at the exact minimum salary range for my current job.Basically this is a long winded way to say I know Im worth much more than I currently make. But I also recognize that getting another position within the same company will not give me a significant raise. I heard through the grapevine that the target salary range for the next job level up Im interviewing for starts at 64k, but they can hire people lower than that with the promise youll be bumped up to the minimum within 2 years.So, would it be unreasonable for me, if asked, to ask for 57k 20 raise? Its still fairly lower than their salary range, but also still a good jump for me salary wise. I also didnt mention it, but if I accepted the position, Id have to move to an office downtown and pay for parking 250 a month, whereas I can park for free now. Do you think thats an unreasonable number to start the negotiations at? I dont expect to get that number, but I dont want to sell myself short either.  <response>: When getting promoted internally, you should expect to be paid the bottom end of the salary range for the new position. If the range starts at 64k, you should be asking for 64k. Dont ask to be paid below the minimum.Asking for anything below the minimum is the same as saying, I know I am not qualified for this position.Dont make it easier for them to underpay you.
