Companies Differ in Approaches to the Salary Issue

As a job seeker, I like to see how different employers address the salary issue when advertising a position. Lately, a lot of them are asking applicants to state what amount they want at the time of resume submission. Some even say they won't consider an application without this information. Some companies will give a salary range for the job. Others don't reveal the salary, but they don't ask what a candidate wants to earn either.

A few employers, however, are very specific, right down to dollars and cents. One employer stated the dollar amount that the candidate would be paid. Right next to that, it said, "Not a penny more."
