The job posting had a clear salary range listed: $104,000 to $194,000. That’s a ridiculously wide range, but my friend Tiffany (name changed for privacy) met all the requirements and needed a new job.
Tiffany’s previous company laid her off as part of a large-scale reduction in force—about 3,000 people lost their jobs on the same day she did. Despite it being a huge blow, the timing was somewhat helpful, as Tiffany was caring for her dying mother, who lived two hours away.
But money was running out, and this job was a great fit for Tiffany’s skills and experience. Her previous job paid $135,000 plus bonuses, and she was looking for a salary increase. She knew the market and was confident her skills could easily command $160,000. So, with this job encompassing that salary range, she applied.
Almost immediately, a recruiter reached out to Tiffany and scheduled a video interview for a few days later.
