What are your salary expectations?

The candidate can answer well by providing the interviewer with a range of salaries they feel best fits their skill sets based on prior experience, education, awards, or any other factors. Reporters looking for a job within the first 1-5 years of reporting should expect to make within a range of 20,000-40,000 based on the television market size of the station or publication they are reporting for. Other experienced reporters can negotiate higher salaries based on their prior experience. Candidates should be open to negotiations with their salary, including taking a lesser salary for moving expenses, or other negotiations.
