Say the candidate is honest, wants 120k and writes down 120k.
Say the company honestly wants candidate ufo 130k or less. Company plays is dishonest card and writes down 110k. Then the candidate leaves and there is no hire. If company had been honest she would have hired a fitting candidate for 125k, less than the most that company was willing to offer (130k).
- pillowkusis 10y agosay the candidate wants 150 but would take as low as 120. so she writes down 120. she's actually worth 150. the company is willing to hire her at up to 150. But instead, they say 130. She gets hired at 125 as a result. If they had negotiated, they certainly would have settled closer to 150. Her honesty cost her 12k/yr. The company profits immensely from its dishonesty as long as they say a number just above the candidate's lowest.
