[quote=Anonymous]11:23 here again, yes good point PP if it is a small org it could be much more variable. I too work for a very small company and what I've learned from interviewing many candidates since starting here it ultimately comes down to what unique skills or background the candidate may have, so that the company can write them onto certain contracts needing those skills. The revenue from the contracts the candidate will be put onto will essentially determine the salary offered.

Don't forget that benefits package matters nearly as much as the flat salary - get that info now and use it to compare what you currently make (with your current benefits pkg) and determine if it's acceptable.

If they make an offer, you might as well try to negotiate higher and say "I would not be comfortable making the move for less than XX" and they'll either say "Okay how about YY (in the middle)" or they'll say we can't go higher than [original offer], at which point you can say you'd like a couple days to consider all the factors or something like that. They've made you the offer so they want you, and you should have (some) room to attempt negotiation. Good luck![/quote]
