I never want to tell them in case I get low-balled by the place I am interviewing for. I know biglaw salaries are generally public so I am more speaking from an in-house perspective.

The only advantage I can see is if they can see I am being paid less than what their salary bands are, in which case they know it’s an increase and thus I am more likely to accept / not wasting their time.

How do you go about it typically? It’s an external recruiter.
