    That's my experience too. Just absolutely to brag, but I wasn't actively applying in the last 10 years, I was always headhunted.
    I mean not personally as if everybody knows in the industry that Golem is the shit, but as in when I get bored after 2-3 years at my current job and I want a nicer salary bump, I start to answer some of the more interesting LinkedIn messages and usually in about a month I land something new.

      I've been wondering about this. Is it reasonable to ask those recruiters through the linkedin chat about salary before wasting time on the phone with anyone? I've been thinking about answering some of those messages lately like you mentioned you did.

        Absolutely fine to politely ask for a salary range, in my experience. I've never found they hide it, but the ranges can be broad.
