Sometimes the job that you are trying to get pays more than your current job, most people try to get a higher paying job, but the interviewer may want to know why your pay is low and it is always good to let then know that you are up to the new salary and that you are worth every dime because of your worth to the new company
Important Factors to Negotiation
Your negotiating a salary will depend on a few important factors such as the level of experience you have for the job you are applying for, also any unique skills that would make you stand out will also be helpful to obtain a new position at the best salary.
