If you emerge as the top candidate for the job at Bayer after their interview process, your interviewer wants to be assured that the salary they offer matches your needs. By asking you directly, they'll get a good feel for if you will be willing to join.

"Looking to enter the pharmaceutical field with a great organization like Bayer, I fully understand that I would be hired at the entry-level range for this position, and I am great with that! I know that my hard work and dedication will quickly prove me to be a valuable team member who is eligible to move up in the salary range over time."

"I am currently making 110,00 per year in my current position, and it would be hard for us to relocate with a lower salary. If I'm your top candidate, I trust Bayer has a fair process for initial salary offers that takes my education and years of experience into consideration."

One of the best ways to discuss your salary expectations is to use your current earnings as an example. Be open and honest because transparency is the best choice when salary-based questions arise. Since Bayer doesn't directly post their salary levels on their career site, you may have to do some homework on the job you are interviewing for ahead of the interviewer to get a good idea of a typical salary range. If you are not motivated by salary in your career move, it is okay to reiterate that to your interviewer.
