Recently whenever i go for interview and after all the usual talk comes the salary negotiation part ... and I'll will always state my expected salary in percentage & the HR person will always look at the expected salary column and jokingly say things like " u are asking xx % ? How did you manage to come up with this number ? "
What gets me is the way they say it like I'm a complete fool and they are the ones who what is the "proper job increment value is"
Pls help got interview again on Monday... honest answer only & no bashing me pulak ...ok
I think ur issue is not whether u mention in % or RM, but wen u ask for any amount, it seems very high for the HR ppl. I gues HR is trying to reduce the cost for the company.What gets me is the way they say it like I'm a complete fool and they are the ones who what is the "proper job increment value is"

Anyway, i did always faced the same issue and honestly i still couldn't come up with any good answer.
Whatever amount i say, the HR will always reply that's too high. then wen i ask what is their budget / reasonable amount, their answer is either:
1. the same amount as my current (no increase), as it shows that's what my current company values me;
2. that their budget is in fact lower than my current salary, but they r willing to match my current salary; or
3. a mere 5%, and they presume i shd be happy with that.
Any suggestions pls, especially from HR experience ppl would be great.
