Is it normal for recruiters to ask expected salary before hiring committee meeting .How do u handle?
Say you want Market value
Discuss numbers when they have the intent to extend an offer. Throw a big number and let them figure it out.
I think u have to ask more. Once offered they don’t change
Just give the recruiter a big number (but not something outrageous.) Comp committee will come back with what they actually want to pay you
Yes it is normal. This let's them know if moving you forward is worth everyone's time, including yours. If you want higher than they can offer then no need to continue conversations. Be honest with what you need and go from there.
