I interviewed for a job, and in the initial phone interview, I was asked what rate I was looking for. I nervously low balled myself by about 5k. Fast forward, I’ve completed interviewing and was offered the job at the lower rate I gave. Is it too late to ask for the 5k more? I don’t even know what their pay range is for this position. I’m going off of what I see on various employment reports, Glassdoor, etc.
Also, to add - I used to work for this company and so when I was “offered” the job- it was via a congratulatory phone call from my boss. He asked if I would like to join the team? I said yes, but have not signed anything official yet.
After doing research on my position, and calculating what it will cost me to commute and cost of living, I worry I have low balled myself. Since I haven’t signed anything official, would it look bad if I asked for 5k more?
