What do you reply when a job application form asks you about your "salary expectations"? It's a bit off, if you ask me, to expect an applicant to name a figure. Too low, and you set them up to stiff you. Too high, and you risk pricing yourself out of contention. And I've been out of proper employment so long that I genuinely have no idea what the approximate going rate for the job should be.
Is it appropriate to say, "I would expect a salary that fairly reflects my age, my experience, and the demands of the job."? Does that sound vaguely sarcy?
