Hello, I recently received a job offer from Publicis for a Media Supervisor role. The salary range listed online was approximately $80,000–$115,000. However, during conversations with the recruiter, I was told that based on my location in Chicago, the maximum salary is $95,000.

I originally applied for the role because I saw the $115,000 figure listed. The offer I received is for $95,000. Is it reasonable to ask for more, or is $95,000 truly the hard cap for this role?

found a role i’m really interested in and came across a post about it from hiring manager with a “reach out if you’re interested”.

I’ve noticed that HR, when explaining why a candidate didn’t get the job, tend to lean on “You’re great, but we had candidates with more experience in [skill relevant to the job].” I do believe this is true in some cases, but it can’t possibly be for all of them.

HR folks — what feedback have you obscured by offering that line instead?
