How to Ask About Salary Professionally in Interviews

Master polite, confident ways to ask about salary expectations in interviews without sounding rude or unprofessional.

Discussing salary during a job interview can feel uncomfortable, but it’s a necessary and important part of the process. In this video, you’ll learn how to ask about compensation in a way that is both respectful and professional. Grace models a perfect example of how to show interest in the role while also addressing salary expectations.

Rather than asking directly, she begins by expressing her enthusiasm for the job, then transitions smoothly into a question about the compensation range. She explains why she’s asking—to ensure the role aligns with her experience and expectations. This justifies the question and shows she’s serious about the opportunity.

By acknowledging that she believes the package is competitive and expressing a desire to be on the same page, she keeps the tone positive and collaborative. She ends by politely requesting insight into the salary range.

This is an excellent script for learners who want to sound confident and professional in job interviews, especially in English-speaking environments. Practice this structure to build your own response and use it in real-life interview situations.

Use this video to improve your business English, negotiation skills, and workplace communication.
