When jobs post the exact salary is it possible to negotiate for more?

When jobs post the exact salary is it possible to negotiate for more? I saw a job that posted a lesser salary than was posted/reported on Glassdoor.

    That's a good question to ask in an interview. If you feel that you're worth more than what they are posting, don't be afraid to say so. The worst thing that can happen is they say no and then you can decide to stick it out through the interview or end it right there.

    You should always ask for more - "is there room for negotiation?"

    If there is no room for movement on salary, you can always negotiate for additional vacation time, additional educational funding, more stock, and additional bonuses based on performance.
