It will put recruiters in a bit of a bind. If they have a job paying $70K and you are already making $90K it’s best for all concerned to get that on the table and make sure that you aren’t wasting your time.

Bullcrap I have taken jobs that pay less if the opportunity is better. It is none of your damn business how much I make now. Like I said I know how to play the game. Take the low ball and use them as a stepping stone.

Frankly, I really don’t care about recruiters. The vast majority merely scan for keywords and spam a mail-merge out to a vast list of recipients: a “throw it at the wall and see what sticks” approach.

99% of recruiter pitches I receive are utterly inappropriate. . .

I don't think so...All they have to do is ask what the potential employee is expecting instead of what he/she is making now...And then tell the prospect that 'this is what we are paying for the position'...It didn't say the law eliminated wage negotiation...
