It was a preliminary phone call to understand the candidate's experience. I was told the technologies required by the employer: * C# and .Net Framework (2-3 years) * WPF, WCF, Active Reports (about the same exp.) I had most of the required experience and was told the salary the employer was intended to pay for this role (16K), I mentioned this seemed low for the experience they asked - according to salary tables available online, but didn't got a clear answer.
