Dominion Construction Group, which is part of the Bental Group in Vancouver offered me a Vice-Presidents position in Calgary with $8,000/mo salary, bonuses and benefits. I agreed to apply and forego a series of interviews. After 6 interviews with all kinds of owners/manager groups, they offered me the job.
They said they'd like to make the $8000/mo a target salary and start me at $6800/mo. All during the interview process the carrot was $8000 and at the last minute they offered me a lower figure. I immediately said, "No, this is not the type of company I would want to work with." Walked out and never looked back. They imported a guy from Vancouver (to Calgary) and within 1 year most of the guys that interviewed me and the new VP were all gone! Fired.
Remember the saying from that hair commercial (makeup?)...... because you're worth it!
Good Luck buddy
