I'd love to hear stories or advice on negotiating benefits as opposed to salary. Like relocation, hiring bonus, etc.

Thank you spwrozek and Kalenn Istarion. I had my first quick phone conversation with HR recently. Unfortunately, my government salary is published, but thanks for the tips on the "complete package".

I didn't get the job offer and now I am sad I guess I'll have to wait until next time before I can put my negotiation tactics to the test.

I too got a recent rejection for a new job. I guess "overqualified" really does exist.
