That happens reasonably often. If it's close enough and the candidate seems to be a good fit in other ways, I go ahead on the assumption that we can work something out when the time comes.

If they are outside the budget I usually just move on. It's not worth trying to beat candidates down on price. I want excellent people on the team who think they made a great move by joining us. If the goal is just cheap labor, it's way more effective to hire in less expensive markets.

Just my $0.02.
