How to use salary data in interviews
The pay question is the one people fluff, usually by answering it too fast and too low. Pick your band before the call. Aim at the mid-to-senior end when you can point to the impact behind it. Then say the figure out loud a few times, because it sounds very different in your mouth than it does in your head.
