I had a disagreement with a bunch of people about this, so I was just wondering what other people thought. I learned through a seminar and in a class at school that when in an interview you never should bring anything up about pay or benefits and vacation time because it makes you look uninterested in the actual job. Well, these people I had the discussion with said it is not inappropriate to ask about pay. If it isn't, then what is the best way to approach asking about it, but without sounding like it is the most important thing in the world?
