Hi all, recently in touch by Spotify recruiter for a Sec Engineer position for remote EU and was told that range was 60-80 out of base salary and equity. Had 2 years of security experience out of my 4 years. Was also told that there is no bonus scheme or no sign in bonus 😕 Not sure how I feel about this tbh.
What do you think?

I always like to ask, "what is something you have been the go-to person for throughout your career, and what makes people trust you with it? I think it is VERY telling about their skill and their reputation.

That’s very interesting, I’ve never thought of that. Thank you😊
At times I've asked someone to tell me about a time they handled a task successfully while they happened to disagree with the strategy behind it. The answers to that can vary quite a lot, but they may reveal how the person works in an organization, how they see themselves as a team player, and whether they're able to think in a flexible way.

Yes that’s a good way around it, can give you a good insight into the person and how they deal with different situations.
“Tell me about a time you solved a problem you weren’t initially sure how to approach.” This reveals critical thinking, adaptability, and resourcefulness which are true strengths that go beyond rehearsed answers.

I ask candidates to describe a mistake and recovery. It always shows genuine strengths.
