Do you feel that you are currently paid what you are worth?

"I know that I am underpaid compared to my industry colleagues. My company is small, and they do what they can, but this is part of why I am seeking a new position."

"Yes, I am always striving to add value to an organization. I feel this is the best way to ensure that I am being compensated fairly."

Many employees will look for new work if they feel that they are underpaid and under-appreciated. Talk to the interviewer about your current compensation and whether or not you think it is fair. You can also share your salary expectations in your response.
