Salary Requirements
The information in this article applies to:
- WinWay Resume - all versions
SUMMARY
Many job ads ask the candidates to indicate their salary requirements.
This is a difficult question to answer because you do not want to
be excluded on the spot for asking for too high a salary. On the other
hand, if you give too low of a figure, you may get a lower offer or
be excluded for being too "cheap".
MORE INFORMATION
It may be best not to include a salary requirement, even if you
are asked to do so. If you HAVE to provide salary requirement, put
them in the cover-letter and not in the resume.
Describe he salary in general terms such as "I expect a competitive
salary and benefit package". If you feel that you have to be
more specific, use a range such as "Salary in the low 50s or
high 40s, with competitive benefits"
