What kind of compensation are you looking for?

As Burns & McDonnell states on their website on most of their positions, "The expected compensation range for this position is based on a number of factors, including but not limited to: individual education, qualifications, prior work experience and work location. The total annual compensation package will consist of a base salary and eligibility to participate in our discretionary year-end incentive bonus program." There is more information pertaining to their salary and benefits on their website. So take time to explore their offerings to better prepare for this question.

"At my current company, I am well compensated for my position, experience, and level of education. I have a decent benefits package, which also includes stock options. They are aware that I am considering other opportunities elsewhere and have expressed an interest in hearing any competing offers and asked for the opportunity to counter offer. I am currently earning 80,000 and anticipate a 5% pay increase in the next six months."
