When getting approached by recruiters, when do you ask about comp? Don’t really want to waste both our times if comp is nowhere near what I’d like

I ask immediately

First thing u ask what budgeted range is

I ask in the initial screening call. The only time I don't is when I know for a fact they're in my range already WITH room for negotiation. (This is rare, but it does happen occasionally.)

Otherwise, I ask so I can focus my research on negotiation details.

Hello Guys,

I have cleared the TCS Technical+ Managerial round.
Now HR is looking for salary discussion. But I don't wanna TCS now as I just have 4 YOE.

I wanna join TCS later in my career at a Good position when I'll have 6-7 YOE.
Rejecting offer discussion or offer letter will impact? Will TCS block me for a lifetime.
Please throw sm light here.
