Agree. Just did that too

Negotiate when you get an offer, verbal or written. It can be difficult to negotiate a written offer, especially if there's a delay between verbal and written, if you don't say anything to the verbal.

Agree.

Not sure how you can navigate this one tbh. My current job offer went through 2 verbal soft offers before I negotiated and got my written offer.

You need to do both but need to start with verbal. If you don't, it's much harder to push for what you want/maximize.
