I’m tired of salary ranges that don’t mean anything. If the real budget is the bottom third, just say that. Candidates plan around those numbers. How do you interpret posted ranges now when deciding whether to apply?

As long as I'm comfortable with the bottom of the range, I'll apply. You're right though, the posted ranges are mostly useless. I always ask for clarification on budget for the role during the initial screening call or interview. If they're not paying a dime over the bottom of the posted range, I need to know that early on to decide if I want to keep pursuing the job.

My husband says negotiate your pay up front and tell them how much expecting for the job that you'll be doing before you accept the job. Don't be scared to ask. He is a supervisor and has negotiated pay for his employees and himself.

Contingent on where that range is and how big it is. I’ve noticed the really wide ranges are not for the same role, even. Feels like they are just trying to be compliant with some policy.

I've seen some that seem like they're just goofing around to see how crazy they can get just to amuse themselves. I saw an audiologist job posting today with the range of $67k-$202! First of all, that is an absurd upper range, and secondly, WTF kind of giant range is that???

I started in my first SDR position in a small SaaS start up few months ago. I am the only SDR and their first ever.
The base salary is ok but I haven’t received any commission structure up to this day.
I book an average of 3-5 demos per week. People always show up, but the thing that worries me is that I do not have a way to track how many meetings I book in our CRM,and to be honest I feel like I didn’t get the best training overall. Should I start looking somewhere else? Thoughts?

Thanks
