Salary Research Brief

Know your market number before anyone asks yours.

prompt.txt
Act as a compensation researcher. My role: [title, specialization, years]. Location: [city or remote, and the company's location if remote]. Industry and company size: [details]. Current pay: [amount].

Build my brief:
1. The research protocol: the 5 sources to check (levels.fyi-style aggregators, Glassdoor, LinkedIn salary insights, industry surveys, recruiter DMs) with what each is good and bad at, and how to weight them.
2. My range: given my specifics, the defensible market band — 25th/50th/75th percentile reasoning, and where MY evidence places me.
3. The adjustment factors: how remote-vs-office, startup-vs-enterprise, and city tier should move my number, with direction and rough magnitude.
4. The number to say: my target, my walk-away, and the exact sentence for 'what are your expectations' — including the deflection script if it comes too early.
5. The evidence file: 3 data points I can cite in negotiation without naming coworkers' pay.
