Is salary negotiation ever discussed with hr leadership? Like, do they set a bracket they will accept? Or is it case by case?

Normally it’s HR and the hiring manager to discuss where in the range the candidate should fall. HR is involved but i wouldn’t call it HR leadership. Most larger companies will not make one off expectations but may adjust the ranges for that job as a whole if market data shows that there is misalignment with internal ranges.

Hiring manager scopes a role, HR sets a salary band, finance approves the band. HR screens resumes, hiring manager selects candidate, if the selected candidate asks for more than the hiring manager is allowed to give, they may move on to another candidate or go to HR to see if they can flex. Ultimate decision often comes down to finance or org structure. Big companies aren’t going to let you be called “‘manager” but be paid as a “director.”

Normally hr and leadership from my experience

Should you discuss salary range with an internal company recruiter prior to setting up an interview? With external recruiters it’s pretty easy to talk about the expected range. I am trying to avoid wasting all of our time if i get to the last interview and they are expecting a salary that is too low for me.
