They are basing it on your salary/hourly history in your last 3-4 positions. They are more concerned with finding someone who has the proven experience they are seeking vs. the rate itself. Would you be available to speak over the phone right now about this? They are looking to move quickly if possible. Please send me your contact information or you can reach me at 312-917-8500 Thanks, Shannon
