Another question on the "salary requirement"

So I hate the salary requirement question, as everyone does, because I don't want to lowball it or say too much and then they don't consider me.

I asked a friend who has the same position in the same company what she started at.... should I say this amount, or slightly higher?   

Re: Another question on the "salary requirement"

  • Ask her what the range is for her pay band. You want to be somewhere in the middle.

  • I hate that question as well. Last time I provided a range but couched it with "it also depends on the total comp package- i.e. benefits, paid time off, 401K match etc etc." 

    Not sure what field you're in but check on the internet for salary studies/ranges for your profession. Often you can even find them by geographic area. Good luck!
