Don't just think in terms of salary.

Think in terms of total compensation package.

If you don't get the salary you wanted, then about more vacation time, more 
stock options, training, etc...

I have heard everything is negotiable.  I have seen in one instance where a 
person was getting 4wks / year vacation while 3 wks / year was standard.

Subject: salary idea

Hello listers........a fortune 100 company recently interviewed me.  Below is a 
job description.  They asked what my salary requirements were.  I need some 
help here.  What do you think this job is worth?  I have my own idea but I just 
don't want to sell myself short.

We are getting ready to start a search for a Senior level Oracle DBA with 
rather specific experience requirements. Our Global Oracle /JDE ERP systems are 
being consolidated into our data center and we are moving from SQL Server to 
Oracle 11g.  We will be deploying the new Exadata server (Sun/Oracle) and 
utilizing ASM, RAC, Data Guard and GoldenGate software running OEL.  Any 
candidate will have to have experience in ASM, RAC, Data Guard and Linux to be 
considered. The DBA, along with another member of my staff, would be 
responsible for the deployment of the new Exadata server, getting our group up 
to speed on ASM, RAC and DataGuard plus developing SOP's/guidelines for this 
new platform. This will be a huge project for the DBA and the company.  I
