Two of the main reasons for asking for a candidate’s previous salary are to help you with your starting salary negotiation and to determine the size and scope of their role within their former/present organization. However, there is much more information to be gleaned from a candidate’s salary background if you can manage to get a clear salary history — i.e., how their salary has progressed over the last 5-10 years of their career. This may be easier said than done, but if you can get the information, it can provide you with some useful insights into the candidate’s personality. I have outlined five such key insights that a candidate’s salary history can reveal about their personality.
