Salary Negotiating?

Got an interview on friday and the salary is circa £16k(negotiable).

Any ideas what I should be asking for?

Personally the job should be paid quite a bit more but in this climate they seem to be pushing it down a bit!

Thanks in advance.

    £16k seems quite low for a Nuclear Physicist. Or an Astraunaut, Or a Barrister.

    ;)

    ok, i'll stop being sarcastic.

    You need to tell us what the job is before anyone will comment on the renumeration!

    you might only be working 2 hrs a day for 5 days a week eating maltesers which I would think £16k a year for is quite good!:)
