I got bit by this at my current job.
I didn't remember telling them my salary at my previous company (usually I decline to answer), but my manager brought it up when I was trying to negotiate an extra 5k.
It's unfortunate that I must've told them my base salary when applying online and that I didn't do a proper negotiation afterwards. My new company doesn't give out stocks of any kind, so overall I'm making less.
- adamio 10y agoI've run into quite a few applications that won't let you continue past the salary history without entering something. Its definitely a dark pattern for job applications
- uremog 10y agoMight be able to get away with an improper input though. 0? 0000000? 999999999999? N/A?
- brianwawok 10y agoSure but they auto trash apps outside the range 50k to 100k...
