Because depending on the candidate that walks in the door I might need them, but I know they will require a lot more handholding.

  If you need them but they won't apply for less than 150k, I think the problem is not that your range is 100-150k making them negotiate for 150k, it's that the market rate has gone up to 150k. If it is worth around 100k to you with handholding put a range closer to 100k in the description, and a separate job posting with all the additional requirements to make it to 150k, imo.

    For a small company, just having one job posting is a lot of work, let alone managing multiple postings. Hell, there are times where we're hiring for a high level position but if a $30k resource walks in the door we might still hire them. Also, it is hard to come up with "particular requirements" that makes someone worth that extra $50k. Sometimes it comes down to a risk/reward calculation you have to do on the spot. Hiring sucks and as much as I'd love to have some great A + B = $100k, A + B + C = $150k formula, there's just too many factors, especially in a small business.

      While I can see reason, sometimes is sufficient to have the same job posting with "junior", "intermediate" and "senior" in the title as differentiator.
