When They Insist You Answer the Salary Question
Salary negotiations, Notes from the Job Search Guru No Comments »
Hi Leslie, I am talking to this company that I am very excited about, but I’m not quite sure how to answer this question. I told the company in my cover note that “I’m fine with market rate for the job” but they are insisting on me giving them a specific range of my salary expectation before the interview. What I care most about is getting the job, and the salary really isn’t important to me. Also, I don’t have a sense of what is a standard range for this kind of position, since it’s a little different than what I’ve done before. Any suggestions on how to address this would be very welcome!
