How much do you verbalize salary requirements during screening call? If the range provided by the recruiter is lower than ideal, do you still continue conversation? Decided to take time to think about

I discuss comp fairly early on, or at the end of the initial screening call. I’m paid well compared to Industry and if I were to move back, it would have to be for the right comp and responsibilities.
Most experienced recruiters understand you want an increase and not just a lateral to where you are. If you’re within their range they’ll let you know. If it’s too high, they’ll also let you know. Important for both sides to not waste each other’s time.

the role and expected salary after talking with the recruiter. I think I want to proceed with interviews, with the thinking that I’ll still have the chance to negotiate the salary. There isn’t much room for equity or bonus. Also, this is a start up.

How do I respond to the recruiter?

If possible defer Salary discussion as late as possible. If you can qualify for next leve thru interview why not try?
If the range is lower than your expected salary you can still continue as there are other ways companies can make up that - sign on bonus, additional RSUs etc

I actually applied for a more senior role that I knew I was underqualified for, but matched my desired salary range more. They got back to me but said I’d be a stronger fit for a less senior role.

I really like the company, role, and people so far, but giving cost or living, is basically be making the same as I currently am.

Also they said they typically provide a bonus that is 10% of the base, and that still doesn’t get me to where I want.

I ask for comp when a recruiter reaches out

I have a friend who was let go a few months into his first job after college (reason: the manager felt like he wasn't grasping the training content to the level that was expected). He's worried about if he should put the experience on his resume anyway, if he does will recruiters ask why he had such a short time at this place, and what will recruiters think if he explains he was let go. What are some things recruiters expect from candidates in this situation to continue considering them?
