I've been in advertising for nearly 20 years, and the way Crispin is showing such genuine care and empathy for the LA team during the wildfires feels almost unreal—like something you'd never expect from an ad agency.

What’s your take on a job listing that states “From $xx,xxx”

The particular job I’m looking at has this on the listing and I’m curious as to what their budget actually is. Do I assume a range?

They’re seeking someone with 5-8 years experience. I have the latter (8 almost 9)

How would I approach this when asked without pricing myself out of the position? Especially if they’re not willing to be upfront (assuming here) how much they’d want to offer me in particular.
