This seems like a strawman. How would you even write a job description in such a way that new grads and 20-year vets would both apply to it? You have a pretty good sense from a job ad what they're looking for even before looking at the title.
The reason recruiters can give you numbers is that they get ranges from the companies, a range from you, and give you the lowest number they can (usually).
- lordnacho 5y agoYou'll find plenty of jobs where a range is given and the bottom is half the top though, so no it's not a strawman. People actually do write job ads where they are happy with a newbie or a veteran.
- muttled 5y agoI would add that if the recruiter is a 3rd party, they're more likely to fight for the higher wage as they get a %.
