Asking for more money after interview

screamer · 2017-02-20 11:05:16

Went for a job interview and was asked how much i wanted so stated x amount. Seems though that the role will entail a lot more than the job spec details in the future. At that stage I'd want more money for the extra workload and responsibility. How can I say this without seeming greedy?

Maybe just say the figure you had in mind was for a role with less responsibility and you think x amount is more fitting for the position. That isn't greed.

When or rather if they make the actual offer of the job tell them that after sizing things up you would need x amount instead if you were to leave your current position.

Just ask for more. If you have been offered the job they want you.
