Quick post.
After ma layoff gusto ko sana munang magpahinga ng at least siguro mga isang taon bago maghanap ulit ng trabaho. Magpahinga, mag-aral ng mga bagong technology (mostly AI related), also doing some project based work. Then several days ago may nag message sakin sa linkedin for a job opening. Out of curiosity nag reply ako and told her that I am interested. So tumawag for initial interview background check etc. then dumating na pinakamahalagang point ng interview "expected salary". So sinabi ko yung expected salary ko na base sa aking previous base salary plus computed na din yung mga additional bonuses. I am not expecting na magulat sya but she told me na mataas daw yun for the position.
I've been with my previous company for 8+years and every year may salary increase ako base sa performance evaluation, not sure if that salary increase is the cause for her to say na mataas yung expected salary ko or mababa lang talaga yung offer nila.
Anyways para hindi nalang masayang yung oras namin, sinabi ko nalang na if lower than my expectation might as well give the other applicants the chance, and I also thank her for considering me and for the interview.
What is it for me, at least may idea ako sa salary range ng skills set ko, siguro I'll try accept other offers and go to several interviews just to get a better feel of the current salary situation.
