For context, I am an Associate currently at a Tier 3 firm who is looking to move out. I know that most HRs ask for past salary slips, whereas we don't know their budget for the role giving them the upper hand in salary negotiations which I feel is totally unfair. Additionally, asking pay slips is illegal in other countries but is not so in India due to which HRs continue to exploit us. Can I just not share my past salary details or would this be considered as arrogant thereby making me lose my chance entirely? Has anyone tried this before. Please advise.
make sure its number make sense using chatgpt etc before giving it ahead
dont fight the system, make it work for you instead
if they ask for bank statement etc - say no, if they insist on salary credit date - edit again and submit
