Interview question- if an hr person contacts you about a specific role, and during your first interview asks you your salary requirements, can you reply “well do you have a specific salary range associated with this job?” or something similar? Tired of the back and forth- just tell me why it pays!

I have said “I was going to ask *you* that question!” and they told me like 50k more than I was going to ask for and I had to just act cool like that was a minimum floor to start negotiating. So yes, ask!

I like that this puts it in a lighter way! Thank you for the suggestion

That’s pretty standard practice don’t say “well…” just ask directly.

Yeah in NY state they legally have to give you this range

I always just ask “is there a range you can share for this position?” and, yes there is, and they almost always provide it

I usually just say it's negotiable and then ask if there's a range they can share.

Yes you can say that. I would let them know it is negotiable and ask what the range is for that position. And then always ask for higher than what they tell you because they have room to budge.
