Focus on playing fair

Interviewers will likely discuss compensation during your meeting. If you live or work in a state with a salary history ban, you do not need to disclose your prior pay.

Focus on the pay range

Prepare for questions regarding your target salary. If the job posting omits the pay scale, ask the interviewer to share the target range before you provide a specific figure. Use this sample response:

I expect my compensation to reflect my skills, experience, and job responsibilities. What is the salary range for this position?

This question prompts the interviewer to reveal the pay scale, establishing a strong baseline for your future negotiations.
