When asked about expected salary in an interview permonth should we say ?

Question

Take home salary(net) or Gross salary in india

Answer 1

From my experience, and if the job requires special skills, the best answer is NEGOTIABLE, but some managers expect a number; if the position requires no special skills, the answer is minimum wage.

Answer 2

Expected Salary Interview

Answer 3

I've always held this question until the second interview, unless this is the only interview. If the company decides to hire from only one interview per person, than they should bring it up during the interview. But if salary is never brought up, your offer letter should state a salary and at that point you can negotiate. It also depends on the job. Food service salaries are pretty much minimum wage and you won't be able to push for more. Government jobs have pay scales they stick to. Private sector managerial/administrative jobs are where you can negotiate. Executives are a whole nuther matter and if you're going for an executive job and have to ask this question....well, lets just say executives shouldn't be asking for salary advice on Answers. :-)

Answer 4

Hi, when asked about expected salary you should always give a range never give the exact salary that you want. The main reason is if the company is paying more than you want you could cheat yourself out of salary, if they are paying less than you want you could cheat yourself out of an opportunity. So if you want $1200 a month, then say that your expected salary per month is in the range of $1200 to ??? that way the employer has something to work with and you are not left cutting yourself short or missing out.

Answer 5

# 1. Be realistic.
# 2. Be positive in your expectations.
# 3. Answer clearly. (do a bit of survey, and be clear in your mind what should be the salary for your job, with your skill level and background: and, what the company is likely to pay!)
# 4. Add a word about the facilities: and, show some readiness to negotiate within reasonable.
limits)
# 5. It is usually the Gross salary, pretax: make that also clear in your answer and interaction with the interviewer(s). It is pretax Gross, because you could individually do some tax saving measures and save some money from the pay!

Answer 6

thats a very obvious question asked in any interview,

Still you can avoid that by putting the ball in their court by asking them :

What could be the appropriate salary for this position ?

or else i would suggest its better we put our foot forward and tell them our expectations, which should not be over last salary + 40 - 50 % .....

Answer 7

You should keep it open and say that let things mature and if they think that you are right fit then you should get into the negotiation mode. Never quote salary upfront, you can loose a good opportunity ... by keeping it open you will be able to negotiate it better.

Answer 8

well i say no never say anything about what salary you want, when your boss takes your interview for first time, only if your expectation is high, then dont say how much salary you want, but your expectation is low then only say what you like it.

Answer 9

30% plus your current salary is good to accept. You should ask for 50% more

If unemployed then it is a different issue and is need based
