Been interviewing and noticed that HR has been super up front about salary. Like quoting actual $. In the past, they’d only talk numbers after the offer has been given. Anybody notice the same thing?

I think offer of employment and offer on salary goes hand in hand, i.e. "we would like to offer you the senior risk manager position at a salary of Euro 105 000 /year, and 5 weeks of vacation, are you interested?"

Earlier this year when I was interviewing, most of the places I was talking to gave me a number in the initial phone screen and there was one place that I didn’t get one until the written offer. Surprised as well with how many places were very upfront about it

I experienced this with almost everywhere this year. They would proceed with my application only if I agreed on a number.

Because the market is hot, salaries are higher than ever. So of course they want to lead with the $$$ and lure you in.
