Job Interview Answers - 5 Of The Most Common Questions Demystified

• A definite NO-NO. Never bring up salary or benefits until you are offered the job. If you give a number or range (even if they ask), you put yourself at a disadvantage or disqualify yourself. Jobs are hard to get; I would not risk it with that answer.
  
  A better answer would be, "I'm seeing a new challenge where I can use my skills and abilities..." (Then go on to list what they are).
  
  Good luck.

While we don't stoop to that level, it is a real eye opener and I felt a sense of obligation to let people who are seeking jobs know what's going on behind the company doors.
