Actually I was asking about what you do when they ask how much you were PAID at your last/current job, not what to say when they ask why there's a GAP in your history. What do you say to that?
- nikatwork 13y agoAh, yes that's a tougher question. It's a red flag to me, but sometimes beggars can't be choosers. Here are some tested dodges: - "I don't think it's appropriate to discuss that" (be firm) - "I signed a non-disclosure agreement and I'm legally obliged to keep my renumeration details confidential" (needs confidence to work) I've caved once to this question when I really wanted the position. Luckily I told the truth because they demanded to see a payslip before I started. But if they play hardball like that in the interview, you can expect the same treatment throughout the company - don't kid yourself that things will change once you're employed.
