“Using a previous salary against you. ‘Oh, you make $40,000? Well, we’ll offer you $50,000. That’s a 25% increase in pay!'”
“Your salary shouldn’t be relative, it should be what the market value of the position is. If a job pays $75,000, don’t pay me only $50,000 because I only currently make $40,000.”

“Never tell employers your previous salary. If they insist on asking, lie.
