You're meeting humans in interviews? That's already a big step up in this market.

The core negotiations are the same as always: know your worth , and only do it if you're willing to walk away from the job. But it's much harder to get that ability these days for many.

The only additional wisdom is to track layoff history these days. Getting an offer now may not mean you'll have that job in a year.
