That is usually my response for any question that I
might be asked but feel uneasy about answering.
Q: Can we ask you how much you've been offered by
other positions you've interviewed at?
A:Sure, as long as I can mention your offer to others
I might be interviewing at.
Q: Can we see some work you've done at past
assignments?
A: Sure, as long as I'll be able to show the work I do
for you at assignments after yours.
Hey! It's the Golden Rule, so it has to be a fair
response..."Do unto others as ...."
