than a single number may help you increase your compensation. that is because the potential employers are likely to go below or even the bottom end of the range. the key toys set a fairly ambitious lower number, equivalent to the one you would have used as a single dollar offer. you need to be careful not to set the range too wide, most successful range offers remain within 20 percent of one another. so maybe you can go ahead and speak up first but do so with a smart range. i'm jill schlesinger for cbs-3 "eyewitness news".
