LuisCampos··on Show HN: Salary Standoff – Resolve the salary expectation/range stalemate
Hey :) Thanks for the comments.

a) Why would the interval approach be better? It's the same thing as checking if candidate min > recruiter max but with some extra unnecessary information?

b) The information cannot be in the URL because the main point of the tool is to hide that information. :)

I think this makes sense. My initial assumption was that the recruiter has no incentives to mislead the candidate, but now I can think of some scenarios where there are incentives to do so.

Beyond that, even if the candidate kinda trusts the recruiter, I think it would be psychologically comfortable for the candidate to have some "official" confirmation.

Thanks!
