A job has come up with a coorporate animal health company. I have applied and received a job offer. The job itself doesn't have much to do with veterinary medicine, but they do require you to have experience in veterinary medicine. Which I have 17 years of high level specialty/emergency medicine background.

In the beginning I requested 65k, I have been countered at 55k - how do I negotiate? This is a contract job, eventually moving to a full time position at the main company.

Contract eventually moving to full time can make negotiations tricky. Do you have it on paper how long you will be on contract before that happens? I'd make it clear that you are negotiating for the contract compensation only at this point, and that negotiations should re-open for that transition.

I agree with this. Usually contract jobs are hard to negotiate. Its def worth a shot though.

I am interviewing for a new IT Manager position. I started putting out soft feelers and then hit the hunt harder. The problem: I have one offer and need to give an answer by next Wednesday.

Do I accept the offer I have, which is a good one or wait for the other two to finalize and possibly miss out altogether?
