If anything, a person would know even better how much they are "worth". E.g. they know the necessarily short interview wasn't accurate.
Not to that company. I may be worth 150 in the marketplace, but that company pays everyone 120. The company is finding people at 120 and balks at the 150. The employee probably goes somewhere else and that's it.
On the employee side, best to get out of the question as quick as possible. One thing to say is, I have offers higher than that already. They can find out your current salary, but the other offers, doesn't have to be disclosed.
