but in that case... isn't it bad for the employer if the person is not actually happy with the salary is they are going to bail as soon as they find something else?
That's assuming they can. In my hypothetical scenario, it's their best offer because it's actually where they should be but our hypothetical protagonist has an over-inflated sense of self-worth.
Like I said, it's just a possible scenario where I can see how not posting their range could get them more applicants.
