Thank you for taking the time to post this review. We are always grateful for candidate feedback on our hiring process.
We post our open positions in a number of diversity focused job boards, including Diversify Tech. This job board in particular encourages companies to post salary ranges for the position, and it’s generally recommended when posting salary ranges that you avoid making it so large that it doesn't serve as guidance to candidates applying, so we posted a narrower one which was aligned with the majority of our applicants.
At NoRedInk we take into consideration the market rate for the candidate’s current location, which varies across the US, when defining their salary band. Given all potential candidate locations, some outlier candidates could fall outside the default disclosed range, which happened in your case due to influence of the local market rate for the Product Manager role in your region.
While we evaluate better alternatives for salary range disclosure for candidates who live in locations with a lower local market than our average applicant, we’ve decided to remove the salary ranges from the role. We’ll also continue ensuring candidates understand the salary range for the role given their local market and relevant experience on the very first touch point of the hiring process.
