If you’re given a low to mid salary range with high range kept confidential and you go through the lengthy interview process, is it appropriate to negotiate more after being given an offer in the mid-range? Don’t want it to seem like I wasted everyone’s time if I “already knew” the range.

I posted an opening on my team on my LinkedIn. I’m not the hiring manager. Someone I do not know reached out and said she knew someone for the job. She passed along the resume. I asked if she applied online and said I was happy to put her resume in front of the hiring manager. The person let me know her contact had not applied, and had questions. So, I should emailed her. Is this normal? I was a little out off because if I was the candidate I would reach out myself.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but I have a few former classmates and colleagues sweating over lateral interviews. Take a deep breath and relax.

First, doing these interviews does not define you as a person.

Second, take it one day at a time; if they are moving forward, they see something in you.

Third, remember that the people interviewing you are human beings. Connect with them, be personable.
