Job Candidate Role
You will play the job candidate. You will negotiate seven
topics. Each topic has been assigned a point value. The number of
points you can obtain for each topic is listed in the payoff table
(next page). Your goal is to get the highest number of points.
There are different levels of possible agreement on each topic. The
number of points varies for each topic and each level of agreement.
Some issues are more important to you than others. The reasons for
the relative importance of each issue are described below.

Your BATNA is: You already have another
good job offer
Number of
point: 6,000
2) Plan your negotiation for that role (refer to the Plans step
in slide 17) by:
2a) For each issue (out of seven issues
shown in the Payoff Table in the second page of the information
sheet), identifying your initial offer (by marking “1” next to the
chosen option in the payoff table), target point (marking
“2”), and resistance points (“3”).
2b) Taking note of your BATNA (your BATNA is
reported in the information sheet at the bottom of page
2); Report it here.
3) Use the information sheets for both roles to
identify the types of issues as described in Slide 16.
Specifically, specify which issues are “Distributive”,
“Compatible”, or “Integrative”.
