I don't want to shoot myself in the proverbial foot by short-changing myself. In the past I've replied, "What's the starting rate?" and it's never appreciated (or answered). That's such a hard question to answer - don't interviewers know that? Or is that the reason it's asked?? I read somewhere that you should never, ever answer with a dollar amount...but what IS the answer then???</P> <P>Thanks to anyone who can shed some light on this for me!!</P> Sat, 16 Apr 2011 19:03:11 GMT dionline 2011-04-16T19:03:11Z https://community.qvc.com/t5/Community-Chat/During-an-interview-how-do-you-answer/m-p/70832#M40631 <P>...the interviewer when he/she asks how much you're looking to earn?
