I've been on the job search for a while... and we're not talking about manual labor or general commercial/restaurant type work. Once getting the interview many times the question put forth was: "This role pays the rate of $XYZ. Can you do that?"
A few years back they may have allowed some wiggle room with a phrase such as "... but with your experience and value brought to the table we could bump that a bit by $WXY".
In the former case, early in my job search, I would say sorry that's below my threshold and that would be that. game over. So evidently... my standards have had to drop.
