STOP ANSWERING THIS QUESTION IN INTERVIEWS!

Stop answering this question in interviews if you don't want to be lowballed for the compensation you deserve. My name is Tammy. I work at tech sales. I help other people break in the tech sales and a question you'll commonly hear during the interview process is what is your compensation expectations for this role. The reason why you shouldn't ask this question and should actually answer this question with a question is because you could be potentially low balling yourself. So the perfect response to that is what is your budget for this role. I'm going to explain why. For example, if I was a tell a company, I want 60k base and 85k OT. Their budget for the role could have actually been 75k based and 125k OT or anything along those lines. And by me low balling myself, it makes it a lot easier for the company to move forward as me as applicable, whereas someone else who actually knows their worth for their role. And legally, these companies are required to tell you what their salary expectations for you would be. And honestly, I wouldn't want to work for a company that wouldn't tell me their salary expectations. So little shading to me, I would personally move on. So by answering this question with a question, it allows you to build confidence within yourself or whether or not you want to move forward with this company and if it gives you room to negotiate your offer.
