Job Interview Question & Answer: If We Were to Give You the Salary You Want, but Let You Write Your Own Job Description, What Would it Say? |

|
How to Answer the Question:
This is a trick question; always tell the employer the job description would read exactly the same. If you change the job description, the interviewer may think you believe they are paying you too much or too little for this job. Always keep this answer short and to the point, and assure the interviewer you believe in the company’s ability to relate the duties needed for a particular position.
As a job-seeker, you have no right to tell the company what tasks a particular worker should perform. Even if this company requests far more work than average, they find success utilizing this model and could care less what your outside opinion is. Don’t take this chance to put your foot in your mouth and criticize the company if you actually want this job.

I know some people salary matters but for me I don.t really care as long as I have a job and they give me a right salary according to my job discription and Im willing to do and love my job..try me you never regret it…Filipinos are a hard working people and my motto “TIME IS GOLD”.
September 2nd, 2011 at 2:07 amIf you gave me the salary that I would want, I would never change the job description because I wouldn’t want to as it was created by your company. I have never heard of being asked to change the job description before someone was hired or after unless you worked in administration.

October 18th, 2011 at 10:47 pmAs long you are a good worker should get a good salary depending on the job description and performances. Good performances can get compensations. Also depend on the agreement also of the company.
The amount that the company is offering is based on the job description that I am looking for. If I am happy with my salary and the company is also happy with me then why we are not working as a team if both parties are happy together…
