I've had 21 LinkedIn messages this week, and I'm not even really looking for a job. Almost all are an increase on my current salary. But I've just switched job, so going to bide my time for the next 12 months and then see where I'm at.
You got 21 recruiter messages _with salary_?? Amazing.
I have had almost no luck getting that information from recruiters without hopping on a call. None have ever provided that information upfront.
I only managed to get that info from an Amazon recruiter after pushing the issue pretty hard. At first he bragged that Amazon had upped their bands, without mentioning any numbers. When I asked how much, he pointed to a reddit thread and levels.fyi, still not mentioning any numbers. I finally straight-up asked him to stop being coy and just name the range, after all it's law in California and I'm going to keep asking until I get an answer. It took him a couple of days to respond, then I never heard from him again.
And this is the only recruiter that has ever actually given me an answer. Ever.
