Is AUTHOR wrong in the post ? POST :  So I had a job interview today that was  more of an informational interview/ them trying to sell me on the job,  because they knew I was unsure about accepting the job, and they wanted  someone to convince me to want the job. They have implied that I am  their first choice, and the job is mine if I want it (but I have not  gotten an offer letter yet). I am graduating college soon, so this will  be my first job out of college.

15  minutes in to the interview I bring up salary. FYI, this job has a base  salary with the opportunity for commission. I was not happy with the  starting base salary that I had been told by someone else earlier in the  interview process, so I gave my reasons for wanting a higher starting  salary: I had an internship last summer and have been working part time  ever since so I have experience in an applicable field, the salary is  below the average of graduates of my college (the salary I asked for was  still lower than the average of graduates of my college, so nothing  excessive), my prospective teammates think I would be a great addition  to the team.

He is not happy that I  brought up wanting more money. He says that it doesn't matter what  college I went to, calls me entitled, says all associates start at the  same salary and you earn commission based on what you deserve, and I  haven't done my research for the job. He says he was put off by me  asking for a higher salary. The rest of the conversation went well, but I  was torn up about this incident.
