One of the most important stages in the process of getting into a job of your choice is salary negotiation. At this stage of the recruitment process, employers ask for your current salary statements or salary history.

It bees important therefore to decide carefully and do some homework before including salary history as part of your application.

nternal salary ranges of an anization are considered for the job.

The similar jobs pertaining to the same industry in similar locations.
