What are your salary expectations?
The best way to discuss your salary expectations is 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 based on my years of experience in this industry."
"I am currently making ?14/hour with two bonus opportunities. I am looking for compensation that is aligned with the role and provides an opportunity for growth."
Salary questions can be a bit tricky. You want to earn a decent salary but do not want to respond in a way that will talk you out of a job. Waitrose job descriptions generally have a salary range noted on the job announcement. Using the posted salary range will help you determine what salary range you would expect if hired for the position. When responding, back up why you would like your requested salary based on your skills and experience.
