The interview went well, but now I am in a pickle about the salary! The salary is far too low for me, but the recruiter said they are looking into raising it by a pay grade. She knows the amount I seek. which is about 50K higher than the salary they are offering.

I didn't say anything like, oh I would only be interested if you do raise the salary. So now what do I do... ?

ps. I resorted to ChatGPT which gave me a good answer about following up with a separate letter about salary, once they off me a second interview.
