Tell HN: Lack of job salary information wastes everyone's time
Most entries do not include salary info. So we go to glassdoor (or somewhere better?). Even still, maybe we don't find any or reliable/believable info.
Now we as candidates have to decide: do we take the time to start the conversation with the company, only to find out after some time and effort that the salary is way below our current appropriate range?
And on the company side, they have to sift through tons of intro emails and possibly resumes to decide whom to respond to.
What is the time cost of the involved parties on both sides? (Hint: it's a lot.)
So stop wasting everyone's time. State your "typical" salary number. Maybe it's a bit higher or lower than what a candidate might secure, but at least it will help with initial alignment.
