the saying goes "in a negotiation, the first one to say a value, lose."
but having endured 2 LONG interview process just to learn that the openings were way bellow my interest, despite the absurd requirements, i must say that if one post mentions a value that is near what i'd like, I will probably apply just to that one. i would probably start to consider every single other post as a waste of time. ...now back to reality, too bad no one will ever do that and i will have to continue guessing.
IMHO that's messed up. A fun analogy would be people hiring being OK to receive a resume with only my desired pay. and AFTER days of phone negotiations and i've agreed to a figure, they would have some 2~15minutes to hear my qualifications and call me the next day if they are going to hire me or not.
