Got an interview on Friday for another company in my industry. The role would be a step up from my current position and would involve managing a team of four among other increased responsibilities...so I would be expecting an increase whatever else happens.
Along with my CV, Covering letter etc., I have been asked for details of my current salary. My last 3 jobs have been within the same company, so I've never had the opportunity to, shall we say...'massage' the current figures - it's always been known what I'm currently on, so the increases have been at a minimum.
I don't want to lie, but also don't want to miss an opportunity to bump up my earnings if I can or undervalue myself. I've read conflicting things - many say that moving companies is the way to earn more and one should always add a little if asked - but surely they will know from my P45 anyway?
I was going to lump all my benefits into one figure and keep it quite vague and go from there....
Any HR gurus on here got any advice? Thanks?
