When a recruiter brings up salary really early in the process, like before you know what the job really entails, what do you say? I was asked this and felt kind of caught off guard. Do you give a range or push it off until later?

Give a range. I'll usually say current salary + 15-25% since I'm not going to be leaving for anything less.

Do not give a range. Let them tell you the numbers first. If you are pushed to give one, be sure to say that it’s variable based on the entire scope of the role and the benefits/package offered.

Feel it out

I normally give a range. And ask questions to understand scope.

For expert witnesses/lawyers

I’m a former forensic scientist that left the field several years ago. I recently received a subpoena from a case I worked and suggested to DA to have evidence re-worked by the lab or stipulation. If I am required to testify (as an expert witness), I would need to book a flight, hotel, etc. My question is this: can I ask for my requested hourly rate, travel, and hotel to be covered when speaking with DA or is that “not how this works” as the investigator put it?
