Yes, sometimes a company is just hiring for several potential roles at once with one listing. The need for "more C# engineering skills on the team" might filled by a junior engineer for $X, a mid-career engineer for $1.5X, a senior engineer for $2X, or a rock star for $5x. (e.g. If you land a rock star, you might be able to focus on something else for your next hire.) So, as a company, you put out a job posting for a C# engineer and say "the pay depends on how good you are." You don't want to lose the senior engineer by listing a pay range of $X and you don't want to miss the junior engineer by listing $2X. Not every hiring situation is as easy as "I need this exact cog for my machine and I'm willing to pay exactly X." Not sure why a law is needed here. (I assume the intent is more to prevent discrimination than to un-frustrate tech job seekers, though I can't really see how it would do that.) I guess the easy solution for employers will be to either just list a very large range, or to post the same listing with several different comp bands. Either way they can still discriminate to their hearts' content during hiring.
