Yeah, though I consider lying a moral issue, it’s like no one should expect an honest answer to a deceptive question.
I always have an answer that is locked and loaded 20-40% more than what I’m actually making and generally ask for about 20% more than that. I’ve bumped my pay over $100k in 5 years doing that. Keep in mind I also refuse to work for FAANG-y companies.

- Sohcahtoa82 3y agoI've thought about doing this when random recruiters e-mail me. "I'm pretty happy where I am, but if you can offer me at least $X/year, I'm interested." I imagine most recruiters would say they can't match that. Some would scold me for just looking for a paycheck, as if that's not what literally everybody is doing.
