When browsing jobs online and you see a salary range listed, what is it you shoot for at the interview?
I’m looking at Home Health and one I’m interested in is listed $85k-$95k, I’m in illinois. Automatically ask for the highest range or go in between?

I also want to enjoy my days off in peace. I feel like I didn’t get to do that when I worked in hospice 3 12s. But with HH idk if it’ll be different? And I’m seeing most are 5 days a week

Depending on your YOE, it wouldn't hurt to ask for 90k to start, or even the $95K and let them talk you down.

It depends on your experience, education, and the specifics of the position. I would suggest researching the job market in Illinois to get an idea of the average salary for a similar role and make sure to be prepared to explain why you believe you should be compensated at the higher end of the range. Personally, I always aim for the highest range if I feel I am qualified and can prove it during the interview. Good luck!

A salary range listed on a job posting indicates the position's level of responsibility. If work-life balance is important to you, don't ask for the high end of the range.

This is very true, but it is also true that they like to have people do work that they are not being paid adequately to do. If you are going to be given that work, you could at least be getting paid for it.

Always shoot for the highest salary in the range because they will try to negotiate you down

This firm is mid sized and more focused on WLB. My question is how bad do you think this will affect my comp??

Hi, I'm an artist with 5 years of experience in the game developmentindustry.

After interview sessions, it comes to salary negotiation. To my surprise, the salary offer is below industry average, even more like junior-level salary.

Though my experience includes team leadership and I have described in detail how I could contribute to the company, the interviewer raised the offer, adding $300 only, still in junior salary range.

What does it really mean, and how do I win the negotiation?

TIA.

I just received an offer on a job I would really like to accept. The salary offer is about 25% higher than my current salary, which I am happy about, but is also the low $ on the range I had expressed to the recruiter and the exact $ that I put on the online application (I had to put a $ figure). Am I being greedy trying to negotiate for a bit higher? Do they expect me to counter? I have been burned by NOT negotiating in the past but who can be mad at a 25% increase??
