SKILL.md

Help the user negotiate job offers and compensation using strategies from 3 product leaders.

Phyl Terry: "Before we talk about money, I want to think about the things that will set me up to succeed. There's $10 million of tech debt here - are we on board that this will be priority one?" Identify critical blockers (tech debt, headcount, budget) during the interview process and ask for specific authority to fix them as part of the offer negotiation.

Phyl Terry: "87% of the time when you ask for more money, you get it. Say 'Are you open to $X? That's what I was hoping for. Is that something we can talk about?'" Conduct the negotiation live (phone or in-person) with the hiring manager if possible. Use "Are you open to...?" to keep the conversation collaborative and lower-risk.
