- actualhop 12y agoWill a Medium post suffice? https://medium.com/p/c7ea9cef0b01 https://medium.com/p/c7ea9cef0b01 The part where I offered on my own to write it is 100% true, by the way. They wouldn't even suggest what to say, and they put it up with virtually no edits. Which is amazing, since it could probably use a few.
- chrismcb 12y agoI don't understand, when the recruiters asked about your salary history, why give it? Just tell them how much you expect to make, and that is that.
- DanBC 12y agoThat's probably good advice, but: 1) some people don't like to lie. 2) telling an actual lie during some parts of the recruitment project leaves you open to rare but unpleasant effects.
