The hiring manager calls you and offers you a job at $40,000 yearly base salary plus benefits. Whether the offer is verbal or is in writing, it is best to conduct the negotiations verbally ( via phone or in person) and once you finalize, it is recommend getting an offer letter confirming all the offer details.

This gives you a chance to evaluate the salary offered and compare it to any other offer you may have.
