Salary Surveys, Requirements, and Negotiations
The issue of salary may be addressed by the employer at almost any stage of the job search process. Some may ask the dreaded question "What are your salary requirements?" within an application, during the interview, or wait until a job offer is made. Therefore, you need to be prepared for how to answer this question before you even begin the job search and interviewing process.
