Tips for Writing a Counteroffer Letter State clear reasons backed with research. Communicate other job offers. Emphasize your sought-after skills. Formulate your wants as requests rather than demands. Use polite, neutral terms. Edit and proofread.
Make a counter-offer: “Thank you so much for the offer, I'm really interested in joining the team. I do have a concern regarding the starting salary, however. Based on my understanding of the market value for the position, and my skill set I would expect my compensation to be in the range of $xx to $xx.
A counter offer is your response to the hiring company's original salary offer. When you make a counter offer, you're asking the company to reconsider its initial offer and bump the number. For example, if a company offers you a starting salary of $80,000, you might counter that with $85,000 or $90,000.
Just say that you're excited for the offer and ask if there's anything they can do to bump up the salary. Don't give a specific number unless you absolutely have to. There's always wiggle room in the first offer because they expect you to negotiate. Don't listen to the people saying it's too late now.
Clearly state the terms you would like to negotiate. Be specific about your desired changes and provide a persuasive justification for your counter offer. Use market research, industry standards, or your qualifications to support your request.
