> As a hiring manager, I see that this is actually not so simple. You give someone a range, say $100-150k. I ASSURE you that they are thinking they are closer to 150k than 100. So good luck giving an offer for $100k, even though that might be what that particular candidate is worth to you.
This claim appears multiple times in this thread but it doesn't actually make sense to me. If I'm currently making $x and I see a job listed for $1.2x - $1.5x, I'm not going to turn down a 20% raise just because I wanted a 50% raise.
