Me: I am open to negotiating. Is there a salary range for this position? Him: Yes, start at 45K, and it goes from there depending on experience... Me: Would this be for the Assistant Manager title then? I did research for the Center Manager so my numbers are quite different, Do I have to say a number? Him: Yes, you would be an Assistant Manager. You don't have to say a number but I would forward it to the hiring manager and he would have a better idea of your expectations. Me: From the research I did, I expected more of a 70k range, but that was for the Center Operations Manager role.
