Exceptions, i.e. to increase the pay just a few hundred dollars requires approval from senior management, i.e. either the PS or CE. So if you are gonna push hard for a better offer, you best hope they really like you.

I don’t have relevant experience for the role that I was offered. But my current salary in the private sector is only diploma level pay (I have a degree), so I’m not sure how is HR going to calculate the pay. If they go below my current pay, there’s really not much incentive to join.
