This is how to respond when a job interviewer asks how much you currently earn tuesdaythoughts
Answering truthfully could put you at a disadvantage – but you don’t want to seem evasive. Here’s what to say next.
At the same time, you don’t want to appear evasive or outright lie – not least because if you do ace the interview and get the job, they’ll be able to see your previous salary once you provide them with your P45. “If wages continue to be based on previous jobs as women go through their lives, we won’t be able to break the cycle of paying women less,” she says.
Spend some time poking around on websites such as Glassdoor and talking to recruitment agencies to figure out the market rate for the job you’re currently in. This will help you establish whether you’re being underpaid in your present position. “Employers should be advertising jobs with pay bands, which gives you a point to negotiate from instead,” she says.
“Or try: ‘I am currently earning a bit less than the market rates as I am working outside of London. However, other jobs I am interviewing for are paying between £35,000 and £40,000 and this is the range I am looking at.’”
