The best way to negotiate is when we don't need a job but are willing to take higher offers. It works like this, a recruiter contacts us with a job where our skills match (but we did not solicit the call). The first questions we ask are: 1) Is this remote? and 2) What is the salary? They'll tell you right away if its remote, but if you get into the Salary game simply ask for 2.5K-5K more and don't back off.
What does this do? It weeds out all non-serious offers.
There's only one way where it's better. A major Fortune 100 company recruiter calls because our resume has exactly what they want. In that case the salary dance starts because you really like that company (FANG)
If you don't have a job but are in the market follow this advice. The key point here is to interview as often as we can, work 8 to 9 hours a day in the search, and study, study, study! Don't ever give up!
