How does one negotiate salary and benefits with a hiring manager?

For federal just say you want a bump to step 4 on hiring (it's the max they can approve locally without needing higher level approval, at least for DOD). Might be different for other agencies.

For corporate you'll have to do a bit more research, but just being prepared to walk and having other offers waiting in the wings is the main thing. If you're desperate, they can smell it and they'll lowball you into the dirt.

What if they list their salary range up front?

You can probably push higher than that if they really want you, but you'd have to be some kind of autistic trans native american woman who's also actually competent in xir field for them to want you that badly.

If you're comfortable with a number inside their range, then ask for a little more than that and if they offer less than you're willing to accept, tell them you have a hard limit at the number you want, they have you number, and to contact you once they get approval to pay you what you're worth. Then walk away and go to the next salary negotiation.

You can literally choose to identify as some kind of fag and pretend to be hispanic very easily (just say your grandmother's mother was from Argentina). Thanks to trans, you can even claim whatever sex/gender you want. The harder thing is native american or disabled, since federal money is tied to those identifiers and usually they require a paper trail, but the general DIE push usually only requires that you choose to identify how they're looking for.

It has crossed my mind ngl anon, I knew a guy at my last job who did that because his mom is Mexican. Irish last name and normal looking white guy but "Hispanic". I will try to get more sun and unironically shoot for Hispanic if job competition gets too difficult.

They are desperate and have claimed that I am a very strong candidate for the position. In the benefits package they list, they don't include tuition reimbursement, which I am particularly keen on. Since they don't offer that, I want to ask them to include that, or at the very least raise my salary by $5k.

if they give you an offer, try to go for less than 10% of the offer added like 85k instead of 80k. If you ask for 88k they will probably tell you to fuck off.

You ask to speak to a Russian.

The job offer is actually $80k, so I’ll ask for $85k.
