We recently did a survey that people expect companies to share the salary, but based on our data, only ~5% of job posts have salary shared š¤Æ
It is time we should ask companies to improve in this area, agree? 
Discussion
Yes. If they're only willing to share what they want out of the deal, and not what they're willing to give, they're not taking the position seriously.
I applied for a project today and it didnāt post a salary; instead it ask what I expected the salary to beā¦
That is the worst way to handle it becasue it typically shows:
1. The business doesnāt know the value the role they are hiring for is expected to create
2. They want to low ball you
3. They want to disqualify you based upon if your expectation of compensation is ātoo highā in their eyes.

None of the above is looking to hire based upon culture and aligned values.
It was disappointing for sure to see that question on the āapplicationā
Agree and thanks for sharing that. I also had several such positions which I applied and they asked me to fill my expected salary.
Unfortunately (or maybe fortunately), I didn't get back from them and not sure if I asked to much or they something else.
Probably does not even worth it to deal with such companies if you can manage that. Like in case of job shortage, could be hard to be picky.
I always put āTo be discussedā.
Why? Because 9/10 scope or what role they want me for changes during interview/negotiations.
Andā¦I donāt make decisions about working with someone or a company based solely on #money
There have been times Iāve worked for less than Iām worth and times Iāve worked for more (not than Iām worth but comparatively for a particular function).
"To be discussed" is a great way to handle this. Usually, only during the discussion it is possible to understand what you are going to do in your role, because descriptions, especially right now are being created very broad and with the help from ChatGPT. For me, it is hard to trust 100% what it is written there š
