This episode talks with Dave Alpert, an experienced data center recruiter, about effective salary negotiation strategies. The main points covered in the episode include:

• The immense value of negotiating your salary, even a small increase can compound significantly over time.
• How to use data points like current benefits, experience, and qualifications to justify a higher salary offer.
• The importance of being gracious and avoiding outright rejecting an initial offer to keep the negotiation door open.
• When it may or may not be advantageous to disclose your previous or expected salary during the process.
• The reality that employers value internal equity and have limits, but are generally open to reasonable negotiation backed by data.
• The unique leverage data center professionals currently have in a rapidly growing industry with talent scarcity.
