I got a lot of this recruiter incredulity when I was looking for work late last year. It got to where I was talking about salary range at the front of every call with a new company/recruiter to make sure that we were on the same page.
- mcv 12y agoIncredulity? To me, that has flipped around dramatically recently. I'm a freelancer, so to me it's the hourly rate that matters. About two years ago, when recruiters asked for my hourly rate, it always ended up with less than what I originally asked for. This year, I've noticed that every single recruiter is very eager to agree with my rate, and my next project marks the first time I'll make more than my asking rate. Something clearly changed, and I suspect I may have to increase my asking rate.
