Message: I was recently contacted by a recruiter about a position. He asked me for my current salary. I went an answer I had seen on this site?? that I would prefer to wait until a mutual interest had been established before disclosing that info. He wrote back saying he was reviewing a # of resumes for the positions and needs to know not only my current salary but also my salary when I started with the company. Honestly I still would rather not disclose the info?? would I hurt my chances with the job if I don??t disclose the salary? Issue is also I don??t really know the recruiter and I don??t remember sending him my resume although I have just started a job search and have sent it to other recruiters?? Thanks much for any advice/thoughts??
