I respectfully disagree. "Haggling" over salary is seen
by most hiring managers and HR professionals as a natural
stage in the hiring process. They're not scared to do it,
believe me.
Those of us who don't feel confident about our negotiation
skills should take a class or read a book -- or read a lot
of books -- to hone those skills. Few other skills pay off
quite as handsomely as negotiation skills do.
