Exactly what the title says. I was asked my current base salary, not what I'm looking for. And when I refused they tried to pressure me into answering. I don't want them doing this to other people who don't know it's illegal.

I did try googling but didn't see any answers aside from "sue them". Shouldn't there be a way to report it to the labor board or something?

If you read the California bill, a third party recruiter is also not able to ask this. Just ask the salary range you are looking for and stop doing illegal shit

To everyone telling me to lie: No I told them my range and that's all they're getting. Other people will not know this is bad though and fuck over their future salary for years to come. Sorry I care about other people besides myself 🤷‍♀️

I already know better than to give my current salary.
