I've read both of these comments, and I really struggle to see how both of the following can be true:
1. As a hiring manager, knowing your previous salary will not impact my decision on your value.
2. As a hiring manager, I insist on knowing your previous salary. If you do not want to discuss it, you must not trust us.
I'm going to assume matt is lying unless he will release comp data for his offers vs what the candidates' reported salaries. he is on here doing 100% damage control.
