this request under the guise of the company and

Title: RE: Companies requiring proof of previous salary
Another way to look at this issue has been highlighted at the
website www.headhunter.com . If anyone is seriously considering
changing positions, this site is a must!
There have always been discussions in regards to salary; as has
Rule 1: You are only worth what it costs to replace you.
Rule 2: There is ALWAYS someone willing to do more work for less money.
On applications, it normally asks salary at each position. I typically list
the range of my present position. I am normally willing to provide a copy
of my present
You are not required to provide this info. However, they are not required
to give you the job either. Hope you did not lie about it already. If you
did, move on to dice.com, itjobs.com etc.
You may want to find out what your existing payscale is. For example a
project manager makes 42 to 60
Hi,
Please move this discussion to the groupstudy.com jobs mailing list. The jobs mailing
list was setup to keep jobs related
discussions of the tech group. In fact there are many headhunters and employment
specialist who can handle this type of question.
Thanks,

Hi
Thought the jobs list got killed since it is no longer available on the news
server. How about a newsgroup of it for us that don't want to take all the
email?

S,
This is an improper request from companies requesting this of you. Legally,
they can only verify a 'range of salary' when they contact your employer for
references.
The best thing to say, especially if you don't know how to negotiate or
forge a pay stub :-)), is to let them know you would
Well, for starters, some companies do in fact require that as a basis to
verify/validate your requests for a larger number. You may not be able to
get around it. Sorry.

When interviewing for noticeably more in salary- it's safer to play offers
(I have offer from XYZ, for XYZ). @ my old company, I saw handful of people
inflate their current salaries with the wrong potential employers.

I absolutely disagree that there's nothing that can be done for a company
that exhibits this type of behavior. VOTE WITH YOUR FEET!!! Remember,
we're in a time when demand is high and skills are hard to find. Tell the
company that your previous salary has zero bearing on what you now
not worth what you are shooting for.
There are exceptions to the rule.

I have been on the receiving end of that kind of request recently and what I
said was that not only would I not produce a paycheck stub, I would not
discuss the salary I receive in my current position for the reason that

I was just in the same situation, sort of?
I had two companies making offers to me at the same time. Both asked how
much I would like to make! I told both the amount I make now...
One company came back with less and the other came back with a whole lot
more. I used the second offer to get the
Unless you're dying to have the job, I think you should tell them that you
are not going to tell them how much you're making right now. Like other guys
have said, this is one way for them to cheap out on you. This potentially
tells a lot about the potential employer, too.

Previous salary says a lot about a persons skill level. After all, if you
are not worth your former or current employer paying you what you are asking
for, why should another employer pay you that much
time you needed one? Doesn't happen, instead we have to go through
that crap.
