Why do companies lie about "Attractive salary" in a job post?

I applied for a job where attractive salary was included and I was scheduled for an interview, when I was asked for expectation I said 300 - 400k, to my surprise, the interviewer said the salary is 100k. I think if a salary is attractive, it should be above general market value, mind you, the general market value for this job isn't even this low.

Why do recruiters do this? I was so disappointed 😥 I wouldn't have wasted my precious time and effort on that job interview.

Because they lack integrity, they believe writing "attractive salary" would make people apply. Off course it could make them apply but will it make them stay?
Only stupid recruiters do that.

You just learnt a vital lesson. If the salary is truly attractive, it should be included in the job post. The fact that it's not included means it's a total bullshit

Reason some interviewers need to be punched. Don't tell me you didn't ask how that's supposed to be attractive. They lack honesty and they're not supposed to get good people to work for them.

I disagree. An attractive salary is a salary above market value, a salary that's probably times 2 or more of the general market value, it's different from saying competitive salary which is market related. The job poster in this situation is just a liar.

No matter the terminology in use, if salary or salary range that's of my expectation isn't boldly written, God knows i'm not applying for that job
