Don't give specific dollar amount
Payroll Specialist - (City withheld for privacy), Texas, United States
Never give a dollar amount up front. Ask what other employees are making in this job. Give a range of how much you would like to make with the minimum being the minimum you would accept and the maximum being more than you actually want. Work from there to get what you will be offered and decided what is the right amount to accept.
