It was an online interview, with both an analogue and a digital team member present. They mostly asked about my CV and some technical questions about digital topics. Even though it's a digital engineer role, they really focused on analogue understanding.

So, a friend told me they were trying to boost their wireless game and needed someone strategic. I had to push a bit to get a phone interview with HR. It was going pretty well until they hit me with the salary question. After that, radio silence. The HR person eventually emailed back with a flimsy excuse that they actually needed an audio engineer, not a wireless whiz. Total bummer, but it taught me to dodge that salary topic like the plague.

  • Could you share your current salary?
  • What's your current compensation?
