TJO Negotiation

Just received a TJO and am looking for some advice on the negation process. Do I begin negotiating before accepting the tjo or between the tjo and fjo?

The pay is a bit too low for me to warrant a move, any tips to negotiate for a higher salary? The original job posting was for a band 3/4 position and I was told I qualified for both, but the offer was given to me at interval 01 of band 3, so I feel like there might be some room for negotiation there. Just looking for some insight and the best way to approach this.

Also, has anyone negotiated for remote work? I’d be willing to take a lower pay/the offered pay if I could be remote. But I understand I probably shouldn’t negotiate for both better pay and remote.

Scudetta biotouch

Any thoughts on the scudetta biotouch? I see really good reviews but am wondering how they would do on AG, as they haven’t released an AG specific model yet. Anyone know how tall the studs are? I know their blades and blades are generally discouraged on AG, but curious about the height.

Starting Pay Scale

If I am to receive a TJO for a position that I applied to, should I expect to be offered the lowest pay scale/range? The position was advertised as a ZP3/ZP4 and they notified me that I did qualify for both ZP3 and ZP4. But should I expect to be offered ZP3 interval 01? Or how do they decide where to start the initial offer?
