What are your salary expectations?
The best way to discuss your salary expectations are to use your current earnings as an example. Be open, and honest. Transparency is the best choice when salary based questions arise.
"Currently, I earn a base salary of 45,000 per year plus a potential 20% annual bonus. Last year my earnings were 52,000 and I would like to stay in the same range or slightly higher."
"In my most recent position, I was earning 15/hour. Since then, I have taken additional automotive courses. I would like to earn at least 17/hour in my next position."
Community answers are written by other candidates practicing this set. Reading how others frame the same question is one of the fastest ways to sharpen your own.

Amanda's Feedback
I appreciate your straightforward answer, but this question usually requires a bit more finesse. You can improve your answer by eliminating your previous salary numbers. Instead, assure the interviewer that you have a flexible salary range, but that you'd like to be compensated appropriately based on your experience and performance record. It may be more appropriate to provide a specific number when you're discussing the details of the position or when you receive an offer. You can also ask the interviewer to share what the range is for the role.
