Tip No. 177
Q. I recently applied for a new job and I exaggerated my current earnings. Now, they want to see my past pay slips before they agree to a salary.
A. CMI cannot offer legal advice to job seekers. We do, however, strongly suggest you seek counsel if this is an important position for which you are well qualified. An additional resource might be the Minnesota Department of Human Rights. They can be reached at 1-800-657-3704, and answer questions related to what is legal and what is illegal in a job interview.
