Im lost without the PW thread!!!!

I just did a quick search and every where is no.

They liked your résumé, you wowed them with your cover letter and now it's time for the interview. You've answered all of the tough questions but there's one area that remains to be discussed: salary. Should you bring it up?

In short: no. There are serious repercussions for job candidates bringing up salary before the employer does, says Ronald Kaufman, author of "Anatomy of Success."

"If the candidate brings up the money first, it could imply that's their main focus and they'll leave as soon as they get a better salary somewhere else," Kaufman says. "I want someone who wants a long-term career with my company and who wants to do the work they're interviewing for."

Additionally, if salary is brought up too early, candidates run the risk of being offered the low end of the scale.

"Once an employer gets to know you and how you can help them to achieve their goals, there's a greater likelihood that they'll offer the higher end of the scale or even a better job," Kaufman says.

What is the salary for this position?
Do not ask this question on a first interview. If you know that you will refuse a job that pays less than a certain amount, you can state the amount in your cover letter. However, if you are even somewhat flexible regarding salary, it is best not to discuss compensation until you are offered a position.

This is a good point and makes me reconsider my statement before. I still think it's important to know. After all, a business is in the business of making money and YOU are in the business of making money.
Nobody is going to go to work for an employer for 1/2 their worth just because they love what they do. They might go to work for THEMSELVES for 1/2 their worth because they love what they do though...

Translated: Co's want employees that are 100% loyal, but the employer actual has little loyalty toward the new hire. If a equal or better hire comes along, sometimes just a younger one, that will do the same job for less......dont let the door hit ya!

We are all disposable, unless you work for yourself and even then you could be.

I know guys that have worked 15 year or more at the same place. Another guy starts either the same time or after then leaves. Comes back and is making double. Not always the case but I have seen it. It is interesting because the companies that are toting company loyalty are the ones rewarding those that are not.

Ask him?

[Fiveflat]

It's not a "Corvette" engine. It IS a Corvette engine. I think that makes sense.

[skippabcool]

Maybe it is not a real "Corvette" engine
