1. Use recruiters. Several. Recruiters signal a company is motivated, and willing to pay more than they need to to fill a position. Tell the recruiters "I'm looking for $xxx,xxx and up." Most recruiters don't like wasting their time, so most will feel out the pricing power first.
2. Do as much interviewing in a short time as you can stomach.
3. Try to get offers from multiple companies. Tell each company that you love them best, but you've got a better offer, and you've got mouth(s) to feed, can they do any better?
4. Take the best offer you can get out of the company you think you'll like working for the most.
