Yeah who the fuck tells the truth with that shit. Literally lie about it or tell them current market rate is what you make.
Go freeze your "work number" as well. Equifax will sell any records of your pay to companies for $60/pop.
What do you mean by freezing your work number?
Equifax, one of the credit bureaus, will sell you income data to any company that pays. They call that service "the work number.' This means that in a salary negotiation where you want 100k, and they want to pay 60k, they can see your current salary is 40k. If they have that info, they are going to low ball you. If they dont have that info, they might pay the 100k, or 80k, etc. They sure arent going to tell you how much they are willing to pay, so why give them anyway to get that information about how much you will take?
Equifax are evil fucks, so of course you cant opt out entirely, but you you can go to equifax and demand they freeze this info so that no company can buy it. Its a pain, but here is a method:
