    It can be awkward if they don't at least give you a ballpark figure first.

    I've gone for an interview before, then asked in the interview what the salary is and it's gone awkward, "we'll email you about all that", then they've said they liked my stuff and asked me back for another interview, asking what my current salary is -- but when I told them they freaked out going wooooahhhh that's way too much etc. awkward for everyone and a waste of time.

    • Awkward? Never.JSK
    • Could get awkward if they're screwing the designers who are in the interview with you.Ranger
    • those questions usually aren't asked when peers are in the room - only managers.bigtrick
