“Let's step back from a job interview, just for a moment, and imagine yourself at a barbecue. You meet a stranger and make small talk, "Where are you from? What do you do? You married? Kids? You have grandchildren? How old are you?" Questions you have all asked at one time or another, yet if asked during a job interview every one of them could be interpreted as illegal. All too often, these questions at an interview are just the result of someone showing interest in you as a person, like at the barbecue.”

“If a prospective employer tells you your compensation is above their budget, it’s not your problem. Your above-average pay is a validation that you are an above-average performer. Don’t apologize for being the best talent. You have reached there with hard work and determination. Don’t undersell. Mediocre salaries will only get them mediocre talent.”
