I applied to a role that did not have salary information on the job description (and there isn’t much info on glassdoor). The recruiter reached out to schedule a call with the hiring manager. Would you advise against asking the recruiter for compensation information before engaging in interviews?

Don’t let them waste your time. It is only fair that you ask straight up.

Ask. Always ask. Your waiting to ask until the end sucks for everyone involved if we are off on comp. I would rather know you are either a viable possibility to hire or we should cut ties and find you something else. Also a good recruiter will have a relationship built with the hiring manager. They don’t want to look bad by saying “I didn’t know they were that much” or “people keep rejecting offers” and risk looking bad.

Thank you. This is helpful.

We create targets for ourselves, then race to chase them down. Be it for a better career, money or a much higher standard of living. But I guess our youth pays a price for it. Not sure if this us just me or does anyone else resonates with this. For everything that I wanted to have and do have now, I feel just very hollow.
