1. Your current job and or job situation (company not doing well, layoffs on the horizon etc) is hopefully not one which you are desperate to leave at any cost.
2. Apply to multiple companies and interview with them around the same time; this usually works out.
3. (HARD PART) Land multiple offers in hand.
4. With 3 and 1 combined, look at the offer letters and negotiate the bad clauses, after reviewing with a lawyer-friend, so that the wording is also right. If they say GTFO, you also get to say GTFO :-).
I know from experience and also that of a few of my friends, it works.
