Interviewed for job with advertised salary

Interviewer stated lower base pay than advertised, making me question the hiring process

What I wish I knew
"Research the company's salary transparency"
If I could tell you one thing
"Don't be afraid to negotiate or walk away if the salary is not what was promised"
