Double win for OP
I walked out of the interview for my current job. Towards the middle of the interview, my now manager said that, due to my experience, I wouldn’t be getting the advertised pay of £36k. They offered £28k instead.
I replied that my experience tells me I should be paid £36k, thanked him and the director for wasting my time, and left.
Later that evening I got a call from the manager – he apologized and asked if I wanted the job if the pay was £36k. I accepted and negotiated a couple extras for me.
I’m still here almost a year later.
