You missed the interview question,it is very much in order. It is for them to know how much to pay you , your expectations and if they can pay you. 2 Likes |

Normal interview question. The potential employer would like to know if you would be motivated by what they would be offering you or not,based on the difference, if any, between what you have been collecting and what they would be offering you. 3 Likes |

Yustash001:It's formal They do that to know if you ll be motivated financially if you eventually get the job . They wouldn't want to pay you something far less than what you were earning. You display high level of arrogance for not shifting ground 3 Likes 1 Share |

There’s no right or wrong answer to this . Some will even ask you to present your payslip in the recruitment stages . You need to place a value on yourself . You don’t need to tell them what you earn absolutely . You can add a premium amount which you perceive is good base on your competency skills and also research the financial ability of the new company on a going concern basis plus your your actual current salary. You sum it up and write it as your current salary . This idea is know as hedging . It will be difficult for them to pay less than what you’ve quoted . 6 Likes 1 Share |
