Ryan Brunner has over ten years of experience recruiting, interviewing, and hiring candidates in the healthcare, public service, and private manufacturing/distribution industries.

It is essential to understand that roles at the organization are compensated on a pay range, and a new staff member's salary within the scale relies upon the experience they bring. Knowing this, you must discuss your understanding and acceptance of this pay philosophy. If you have any direct compensation requirements for joining, tell the interviewer what you would expect for compensation if offered this position. But be sure to walk a fine line here, as the salary negotiation process should not begin until they formally offer you the role.

"I would be happy to earn my way to the top compensation level if I were fortunate enough to join MediClinic. I assure you that, despite my being a couple of years short of your desired experience, I am a top performer, and you will not be disappointed in my performance. Being young in my career, I fully understand why salary ranges exist and that senior staff who have been in their careers longer, with more experience, are higher on the scale."

"I understand I do not quite meet the qualifications of experience you are looking for and am willing to be compensated in adjustment to that fact. However, I look forward to proving my worth to MediClinic in hopes of being considered for the median salary for the role down the road."

If a pay range is mentioned in the job description, you already know what MediClinic is willing to offer. Using their pay range as an example will help you determine what compensation you would like based on your two years of experience.
