Responding to Salary Questions |
| |
Before interviewing, always know your salary requirements and goals as well as what the market will bear.
When you are asked, “What kind of salary are you looking for?” you need to keep in mind that this is being used as a screening tool. In order to keep your options open until you know more and have convinced the employer you are the person to hire, use safe answers such as:
- “I’m negotiable, what do you have allotted for the position?”

Always be prepared to respond
to salary questions! |
- “What’s important to me at this point is not so much the salary, but whether I am the right person for the job. I am certain if we both end up agreeing that I am the right person for the job, we’ll be able to come to a fair agreement, don’t you think?”
