Generate a complete salary negotiation preparation kit with talking points, responses to common pushback, and strategic framing for the candidate's leverage points.

SALARY NEGOTIATION INSTRUCTIONS:
- Produce the following sections:
  1. OPENING STATEMENT: A confident, professional script for initiating the negotiation conversation (2-3 sentences)
  2. VALUE PROPOSITION TALKING POINTS: 3-5 concise points connecting the candidate's experience, skills, and unique value to justify the target salary. Each should reference a specific achievement or market factor.
  3. PUSHBACK RESPONSES: Provide ready-to-use responses for these common objections:
     - "That's above our budget"
     - "We don't negotiate starting salary"
     - "You don't have enough experience for that range"
     - "We offer great benefits that offset salary"
     - "We can revisit salary after 6 months"
  4. ALTERNATIVE COMPENSATION LEVERS: If salary is truly capped, list 5-8 other items to negotiate (signing bonus, equity, remote flexibility, PTO, title, professional development budget, etc.) with suggested phrasing
  5. CLOSING STRATEGY: How to end the conversation professionally whether they agree, need time, or push back hard

OUTPUT CONSTRAINTS:
- All talking points should sound natural and conversational, not scripted or aggressive
- Maintain a collaborative tone ("I'd like to find something that works for both of us")
- Never use ultimatum language unless the candidate specifies they have a hard walk-away number
- Include specific dollar figures based on the provided offer and market rate
