Stop putting Competitive Salary in the job description if you aren't willing to disclose the actual range in the first five minutes. Ughhh. I just wasted three hours of PTO on an interview cycle only to find out their competitive offer was $30k below my current base. Is it considered rude now to demand the salary range before even booking the first Zoom call?

No it’s not rude, as long as you’re considering the entire package. If it’s your dream job at your dream company with lots of upside, maybe you agree to take a pay cut, but you want to know upfront.

However, I’ve found that many recruiters are very demanding and sometimes dismissive in the current job market, so it’s important to be sensitive to that and to be aware of the context and how you may be perceived if you ask for salary ranges upfront.

I generally ask within the first 10 minutes of a conversation with a recruiter, after checking that the job fits my criteria and theirs, and I’ll ask politely.

So I’m currently interviewing for another position, to be a business development specialist at a relatively large tech company in PA. I have about a years worth of experience. Indeed estimates the salary to be between 60k-80k, I was wondering what I should expect?

No question, but I wanted to give a huge shoutout to repvue.com that helped me increase my salary by 80% this year. If you know anyone who works in Sales, tell them about it!

Been with an Asphalt and Concrete contractor in suburban Chicagoland for a little over 2 years now, and am going into a compensation discussion tomorrow after informing my boss I no longer wish to be on a draw.

Current comp plan is as follows:
Salary- ~48k w/ draw up to about 80k, full OTE with commissions should be ~170000, this is all increased by kickers every 250k in sales that increase commission/draw

My questions is if the draw is removed, how much salary should I be asking for?
