<prompt> Human: Hey guys.Long time lurker here-making my first post, and i need advice with salary negotiation.I just graduated this week with a BS in manufacturing engr. I am currently a part time intern, almost 2 years, at manufacturing company in milpitas california high cost of living. My managers are currently trying to get approval to get me hired as a full time salaried employee. Everyone in the company enjoy my good work ethics and person, but I am still waiting for them to get approval from headquarters.As this will be my first real job straight out of college with little experience and most training will be on the job, I do not know if I should negotiate my salary or not. I am getting mixed reviews if it is reasonable and I need your help.Here is a few catch that might help with my negotiation: over a year with the company, and i understand most of the systems manager left the company and i do most of the reportings go to personish within the department long commute hours 1:20-1:45hrs each way overall, i have a feeling that they do not want me to leave or find another job I do not know how much they salary range will be guessing 68k-72k, so any advice would help and i greatly appreciate it.  <response>: Engineers fresh out of college usually dont have too much leverage in negotiations since they learn so much on the job. You have worked with them in the past so they should know you abilities and give you a fair offer. Id only try to negotiate if you think the offer is way too low and you could do better somewhere else. Also dont commute an hour and a half to work. Once you are full time you will hate that commute more than anything else.
