<prompt> Human: Ive been interviewing at a consulting company and it sounds like they are going to send an offer my way soon. The issue is that I disclosed my current salary 84k. Based on the positions Ive been getting recruited and interviewed for, I think I can ask around 120k, but I am concerned that revealing my current salary will prohibit me from getting to this target. I can provide some market data that says that 120k for this position is fair, but the statistics of a 50 salary increase sounds a little ludicrous to a potential new employer.Had I said 100k, a target of 120k doesnt sound as bad. I feel like my current salary could have been negotiated to higher, and doesnt represent my true worth.Has anyone had similar experience  <response>: Please would you post an update as it pans out?I feel like youre now going to have to negotiate against an offer of 90k. But thats maybe just cynicism.
