[quote=Anonymous]If you're coming from a non-fed position, there's a lot more room for negotiation as long as you can provide justification for the hiring manager to use on their end to advocate on your behalf. Of course, they'd have to be willing to advocate for you too. I've been able to negotiate a salary a little over what I was making at my industry job - justification was that my benefit at the industry job was superior to what I would get with the govt (my healthcare was 100% paid by company). It would help to familiarize yourself with the GS pay scale and specify exactly what step you are looking to get and why. In terms of leave, that can also be negotiated. However, I would probably not ask for a salary increase AND leave increase from the original offer. Pick one that matters to you most. [/quote]
