Hi everyone,

I recently interviewed for a health research analyst position Ina consulting firm. I found some of the questions objectionable. What threw me off was the interviewer asked me and I will quote them " with your current generation, work life balance is a huge deal. What do you think are the benefits of working?" They also told me they do "overtime".
Is it just me who thinks this was another way of saying we want you to work more than required?

Wow. That’s discriminatory. It’s like they’re going to exclude you because you come from a certain generation.

I just received this email by a recruiter:

"One thing I want to run by you again is the salary range. I asked you about it when we spoke and you mentioned a range. I would say that we would be able to offer a salary more in the lower part of that range, so I just want to make sure it is still relevant for you? We think l that you would have exciting development possibilities with us"

the lower part of that range, is acceptable, but low for market in the area. Should i ask about benefits?
