Hi fishes,
I interviewed with Siemens Energy for SAP ABAP position on 21st Jan. The interview went on for about an hour and in the end, the interviewer asked my expected ctc and wanted assurance if I won't negotiate on Siemens offer with some other company as i am currently serving notice period and join Siemens if provided an offer.
Till now , the HR team has not reached out to me for salary discussions and my LWD is 7th Feb. Can i expect a call or i got rejected ?Siemens

Well they certainly won’t counter higher than what you ask for
Any number you want? I would even ask for triple. Worst case he counters back and then you settle with double
This reminds me of the war dogs scene. Go high always can go lower
Anchor high! You’re a bit in a disadvantage since consulting salaries are well known, but no one knows your bonus, so why not ask to double
What would you be doing over there?
This! You don’t want to pose a number that isn’t market relevant. I’d do some research on the role and see what’s out there in the market and then weigh your experience against that and see if double is realistic. I mean, if you ask for double, one or the other will happen, 1- you’ll get a significant pay bump and be expected to deliver at that level, which is awesome or 2- you won’t get an offer because it’s too high/doesn’t align with the exp level of the job or your exp level
You won’t know unless you ask
