Salary Expectations When Pressed (Second-Line Script)
A second-line compensation script for situations where recruiters insist on your number before disclosing the pay band.
If They Press for a Number
“I’m confident we’ll align if the role matches the scope we discussed. Can you confirm the band so we’re comparing apples to apples?”
Decision Note from Source
If they refuse entirely, treat that as a red flag: companies that hide comp often grind every negotiation.
