Commentary:
• The interviewer is trying to gauge how much you are worth to him and – in some cases - how little he can get away with paying you
• The interviewer (even though he may be your potential boss) may also be on a similar salary having been promised a raise once this hire has been made
Example bad answers:
• "At least £160K – I think I’m worth it"
• "A similar package to my current if it’s the right job"
Good answer:
• See section 5. Salary Negotiation
