What's the best way to answer the question of salary requirements when it's the first question asked before a job interview is scheduled? I don't want my name crossed off the list of interview potentials!

1. "That is a good question. What are you planning to pay your best candidate?" is a good question to ask back. If the question carries on you can also state that you expect a fair offer based upon your educational background and employment experience. Typically you will want to know what your field pays, salary.com is a good place to start.

Few people actually make an employment decision based solely upon monetary compensation. The majority of the jobs you apply for SHOULD have competitive salaries and benefits.

Good Luck!
