<prompt> Human: I am up for a job with a well known wealth management company. I am currently working as a sales rep for an industrial supply company. I make 32k. I am thinking that the salary they offer me will be much better 45K-50K, but Im scared that my lower salary that I currently have will hurt my negotiation opportunities. Can they check on my old salary with my old employers personally? I dont want to lie about what I made because I think it will come back to bite me  <response>: Use my line:Sorry I dont give out that information, I would be willing to make a move if the salary fell in the range of X and X20.If they ask what factors would determine where it would fall in the range. I say, Location, responsibility, travel time, benefits.dont lie, just dont tell
