A follow-up:
I got an offer for the Aerospace controls gig: the salary was slightly higher than the minimum I mentioned, which I'll take as a good sign.
Now, I have to wait to see if I get the offer from the power company (hopefully they'll get back to me very soon) and make my decision from...
Thanks for the advice NomLaser. Things have been moving quickly lately and I don't think I gave it enough thought beforehand. I'll keep that in mind for next time.
Kenat,
I didn't have time during the 20 minute phone interview to discuss compensation (though I definitely should have thought of it and brought it up). The interviewer did briefly ask for my my minimum salary expectations interjected within the other questions (I mentioned $65K), but that's...

My situation:
I am currently working in an automotive testing facility as a software engineer. When I started 2 years ago there was promise of career advancement, pay advancement, .. etc. I started at 45K, was promised 55K (should have got it in writing), and then we all got a...
