I don't think that is a good assumption. I can think of plenty of other reasons.
1. The answer depends on how well your interview goes. The salary range would have to include everything from a borderline beginner to a highly experienced person with all sorts of extra skills. You might focus on the end of that range which doesn't apply to you. The difference could be a factor of 5 or more.
2. They legitimately haven't been told.
3. They have been told, but they can't tell you. This is sensitive information that can be used by competitors.
- toomuchtodo 8y agoIn California at least, an employer is legally required to disclose the salary range of the role upon request.
- souprock 8y agoSure thing, $40,000 to $900,000. Useful? Suppose it isn't yet decided if you will be a "Junior Tester" or a "Senior Fellow Distinguished Engineer". The decision will be made after the interview. What does California law say about such a situation, where there isn't just one neatly limited slot into which you must exactly fit?

- mancerayder 8y agoTo be honest, almost all the recruiters in NY tell me the range. Some try the 'what are you looking for' attempt at opening bid. But many just want to get on the phone to massage a mediocre pitch, in my experience. Mediocre can mean an annoying location, or below market salary.
