It’s frustrating when upper management sets impossible standards or wants a “unicorn” candidate, someone with every skill at the lowest possible salary. And when you can't get any candidate that you bring forward to appeal to them, it starts making you feel like you're incompetent. What is the real way out of this cycle?

Track and document everything. Gather enough data to make a compelling case to change something. Either expectation of the role or salary band.

^ yup this

documentation is key here! Sorry that you're being made to feel this way

You are the one with the most relevant and accurate information about what compensation is being recieved well and what's not. How is it that you're not confident to soeak up about these things with your leaders
