Should I give up interviewing for a firm that won’t disclose the pay?

I had an initial interview for a job and there was no salary listed, nor could I find anything on LinkedIn. When the company asked what I was looking for, I asked if they could give me a range, but they refused to do so. There’s six rounds of interviews for this job and I really don’t want to continue without knowing the salary— there’s a lot of prep involved and it could be a waste of time. What should I do?

Well, pay disclosure laws are taking hold in states across the country, so if this company is located in one of those states (check on DoL.gov) they are required to disclose the pay range.

That said, threatening to sue a prospective employer for nondisclosure during the interview process may not be the best strategy for getting a job offer.

If they aren’t sharing the compensation but want to keep you engaged in the process, it’s worth you seeing it through to the end, since it likely means they aren’t concerned with their ability to pay you competitively.

It may not be what you want, but worry about that if you get the offer.

You can always try to negotiate, or ultimately turn it down, but you will have more leverage once they decide they want you rather than when they are still evaluating.
