HR felt like a bully after asking for more href="https://forum.tuteehub.com/tag/compensation">compensation by saying "Others that have applied would take this job for a href="https://forum.tuteehub.com/tag/way">way lesser salary than what you are asking" and made the href="https://forum.tuteehub.com/tag/situation">situation uncomfortable via a telephone call. My href="https://forum.tuteehub.com/tag/question">question is how do you come back from a difficult href="https://forum.tuteehub.com/tag/situation">situation when you are being knocked off and get back into the "salary negotiation" part of it?

That's how negotiation works. You hopefully gave excellent reasons why you were worth the additional money and why it wasn't out of line for that job in that industry; they told you that they would rather risk losing you than pay you more (which they are entitled to do if your arguments weren't convincing enough).

Now the ball is in your court again. Either ask them what they would need to see from you to justify a raise, or start looking for a good job that pays better, or take what you've got and try again at a later date.

We can't tell you which of those would be best. And we can't give you any magic that will change their minds if you've already made your best case.
