- ashitvora 16y agovery much agree with you :)
- gaius 16y agoWell, yes and no. The fact that my first employer lowballed me was a life lesson that I've never forgotten. I'm a professional, I'm here to do a job you need done, show me the money.
- barrkel 16y agoEh, if you do well at your first company, and have selected for the interestingness of the work and the degree of responsibility you get to take on rather than salary, you'll have a killer CV and an employer who'll give you a fantastic reference etc. for your next job. Your next employer doesn't need to know what your previous salary was, certainly not before they've made the offer.
