I interpret this as the company willing to pay more if there's an exceptional match, but posting ranges practically filters these profiles out.

But yeah, I'd be happier to actually see these ranges, way less room for companies to lowball you.

    Not posting salaries shows an utter lack of respect for my time.

    I remember when I was working as a contractor that I would simply not deal with certain placement agencies after they sent me towards positions which were way below my rate and wasted my time on it.

    In fact it's generally a pretty good red flag on an agency or potential contract that they're not willing to tell you early in the process what's the range of rates for the job.

    Yeah when I was working with recruiters the first question out of my mouth was "what's it pay?" Eventually got down to primarily going through one agency where the guy knew not to fuck me around but I made up for any annoyance that may have caused by being reliable. That was the only recruiter I ever dealt with who gave me multiple postings at a time to choose from.
