Have you ever got a job from an agency and a couple of weeks after an offer from a sister company which you intended to take? Example: you sign with Publicis and then get an offer from LePub because the process was so delayed you thought it would never come. Can you do this? Any side effects?

What’s your take on a job listing that states “From $xx,xxx”

The particular job I’m looking at has this on the listing and I’m curious as to what their budget actually is. Do I assume a range?

They’re seeking someone with 5-8 years experience. I have the latter (8 almost 9)

How would I approach this when asked without pricing myself out of the position? Especially if they’re not willing to be upfront (assuming here) how much they’d want to offer me in particular.
