Negotiating salary for an entry position?

Question

I received an offer after interviewing but the location was changed from the one i applied to. Is it reasonable to ask for a 10% increase for an entry level role? I already have the offer and the recruiter was very kind. He told me to reach out if i have any questions as he has "heard it all".

Am I taking a large risk losing the offer with this?

Always always negotiate. If you ask nicely with the right justifications, then there's almost no risk of you losing the offer. The worst they'll say is 'no, take it or leave it' and at that point, you'll know.

It's always not a take it or leave it kind of situation so you should try asking for a bump! After all, they have invested the time and money to interview you and offer you, they definitely won't rescind it for no good reason

I understand your predicament. I think tou should bring this up with the recruiter and ask for adjustment. It also depends on if the offer is in the higher cost of living area I don’t think you would lose the offer.
