Companies like to know that you're demanded and that they've made the right decision. This is usually how I get 10-20% higher salary than initially offered.
Well I've already postponed the start date with this internship for a week, so can't delay anymore. The second job is much more stable and long term with benefits, and the internship only lasts 3 months at min. salary
