>recruiters really are trying to do you both a favor.
Third party recruiters, yes. They have an incentive to maximize your comp, as it also maximizes their commission.
In-house recruiters? No way. They're seeking the most talent for the least money.
Always be mindful of the incentives of each party.
- bradlys 6y agoMaybe - but I'd fire a recruiter who kept giving me candidates that were looking for comp well beyond what we could offer. If I constantly got candidates all the way to the offer stage and the candidate rejected us on pay, that's a terrible scenario and a huge waste of time for everyone involved.
- cushychicken 6y agoAsking the range that the role offers solves this problem nicely without compromising your negotiating position as a prospective employee.
