Your expected salary?
Answer 1 - Don't jump at a figure when you are asked this question during the personal interview. Try to turn the ball back into the interviewers court and ask him the type of salary the company offers for a position like this. Still, if you are required to answer this question, mention a range rather than talking about an exact figure but don't keep the range too vast, you will be offered the one at the lower end. Probably you can say, I should be comfortable with something in the range of mid fifties.
- This is the most important question of the interview. Don’t be hurried to answer when this question is raised. Try and convince the interviewer that you really deserve what you quote and not because you are experienced. A fresher usually says “As per company norms” or “What the company feels I deserve”. An experienced professional on the other hand can freely quote a figure depending on the current salary keeping in mind that it is negotiable
