If a company’s HR reaches out via LinkedIn message, is it rude to reply that I’m interested in learning more info and can they provide a salary range for the position? Genuinely interested if it pays more than my current role, but don’t want to waste my time if it pays less. It can go either way based on the job title

It's totally acceptable to ask about this, and if the company is cagey about pay, now you know to avoid them in the future.

Hi all,

I interviewed with capgemini for SAP ABAP role and my YOE is 4 years. Just 2 hours after my interview, I got a call from someone at Capgemini saying that I am selected.
They just asked my notice period and current location.I asked them, what is the next round going to be and they said that it is going to be salary discussion. But till now, no one has reached out to me.
Does it mean they got another candidate for same job?

Currently going through some negations on an internal role. I’m currently at 88k and they offered me 100k for a position that requires a lot more work. Do you guys think it’s easier to land a higher salary when applying externally rather than internally? Also this is for a territory sales management role. They stated 120k+ is extremely high for that role. What do you guys think? Playing the game?
