What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Virginia
I interviewed with this educational institution in Virginia. Ended up being their 1st pick. The HR person asked for my desired salary. I said X amount which was within the salary range they advertised. However, the HR person asked me to provide the copy of my two most recent checkstub from my current employer. That HR person is still very new with this institution of learning. Not sure if that is something built-in HR policy at that instiution whenever salary negotiation is taking place or something she was doing in her previous job in private sector. The request is intrusive and unusual. I complied because I wanted to fully pursue the job as I was their 1st pick even though it can now go to their 2nd pick.
I don't think there is any law regulating this kind of request as many times authorities will say, we don't get involved in such and such matter.
Anyone know more than me? Thanks.
