re: First Job Salary Negotiation.

"Shortly after I interviewed with you guys, I received an offer from another company. They offered me at ________. I believe the better opportunity for me professionally is at your company, but at this point in my life it's hard to pass up _________. Is there any chance you guys have some wiggle room and would be willing to get within that salary range?"

There you go. This isn't that difficult.

First job or not you are allowed to negotiate....ESPECIALLY if you have a competing offer.

If they really like you they will come up a bit on their offer....good luck
