Once you have identified some companies where there is serious mutual interest, what should you be looking for and negotiating before you commit your time and reputation to a future employer? It's easy to say "yes" so you can get through the job search into the thick of things, but there are considerations up front that will make a long term difference in your flexibility with your potential employer, in your options after you leave (yes, it happens), and with your own intellectual property going forward. We have an expert speaking at the January ExecuNet meeting who will challenge you to think now about how to ensure your future satisfaction.
