Question

quick question? help please?

Answer 1

its my first time applying for a job, it's asking me what should i put for the salary desired? should i put my state minimum wage?

Answer 2

that's a bad idea, they might lowball you.
find out what people working similar jobs make at that place. and other places too.

Answer 3

what do you mean by lowball? if you don't mind me asking and my sister works at a pizza place she makes around $8.45 an hour.. but my state minimum wage is 7.25

Answer 4

lowball meaning paying you lower than normal
they might pay you 7.50 instead of 8

Answer 5

so should i put 7.25, 7.50 or 8.45?

Answer 6

I still don't know what job you're applying for
is it a pizza place too?
