Im not searching for a new job but an acquaintance reached out about a similar role at a similar energy company.Turns out 2 ppl threw my name in the hat. I looked into it and the position was posted 2 weeks ago.Their director wants to meet.I bet pay is one of the first things to be discussed so that no one’s time is wasted.Am I crazy for not wanting to entertain it for less than 20-25% base pay increase?Is it selfish to ask for more?

A good rule of thumb is to do what you can to make sure your number is reasonable. As long as you don't come off as unserious you'll be well positioned.

Go into it with confidence and with the knowledge that your counter is justified and reasonable!
