Bill to require job postings to include salaries passes Washington Senate
As a candidate, I <i>hate</i> applying to jobs only to get a lowball offer at the end. So I appreciate bills like this.<p>As a hiring manager, I see that this is actually not so simple. You give someone a range, say $100-150k. I ASSURE you that they are thinking they are closer to 150k than 100. So good luck giving an offer for $100k, even though that might be what that particular candidate is worth to you.<p>It's never gonna happen, but what i'd rather see is an option to instead give current median total comp on the team i'm interviewing for, plus maybe the 25-75 percentile range. That gives me a sense of what I should expect, plus what the salary growth path might be.
