How much more could I realistically negotiate over the posted max?

Question

Range is $160,00 - 170,000. Is the max that's listed always the max or could i negotiate, because my compensation as a contractor has always been way above that?

Also worth noting that the general rule of thumb is that a full time employee will make ~70% of what a contractor makes because contractors have to pay additional taxes. So expect to take a cut in terms of the top line number even if you have to same amount of money after all is said and done.

That’s the range they want to hire for. Once you get to negotiating you’ll often see there’s maybe 5-10k room over the max stated.
