I’ve been applying to new roles, and a few recruiters have asked for things like pay stubs or extremely detailed breakdowns of my current responsibilities.
Is this standard now, or is it something I should avoid?
I don’t want to overshare, but I also don’t want to miss out on opportunities.

You can do whatever you feel like just to make yourself comfortable, but I've been working remotely for a while now, and it's been going well. Though I'm not rich, I make enough to live comfortably. If you’re interested or anyone is interested, I'm happy to share what I do and how I got started!

In some places it's illegal to ask applicants about your current salary, so that can be a problem. Some employers will ask a lot of intrusive questions, for whatever reason. If you need a job you generally don't have much choice but to go along with it.

Pay stubs are a hard no. Detailed role breakdowns are fine if they stay high level. If someone asks for financial proof before an offer, that’s a red flag worth walking away from.
