Learned this trick long ago. Used this to clearly see whether a company values the job to be done and how it treats people. Just let the company make an offer and it will be a good ground for further negotiations. The number states pretty obviously what the company is about. If it tries to just use you and squeeze the money, maybe this is not a company to work for. it doesn't value people and results of their job.

- lkiernan 7y agoYou can talk about their range though. No hard feelings if they can't afford you.
- save_ferris 7y agoI always ask recruiters for a salary range when they want to discuss an opportunity. That way, you don't have to give away your negotiating position while finding out up front if the opportunity is a good fit for you. If they won't provide you with that information, they're not worth working with.
