In August 2005, CareerBuilder.com conducted a survey called “Paycheck 2005,” in which they found that 58% of hiring managers leave some negotiating room when extending job offers. In this press release put out by CareerBuilder.com, a career advisor offers tips for helping you negotiate a better starting salary and suggests that your future employer may even think less of you if you don’t ask for more money.
