How do I set my expected salary and notice period?
Open Edit details on your profile card and set Availability, Current CTC and Expected CTC. Both salary bands have to be filled in together, and both are private until you publish them.

Why bands instead of an exact number?
Hirers filter on bands, so an exact figure would not be matched any better and gives away more than it needs to.
Should I publish my expected salary?
It is your call. Publishing filters out roles below your range early; keeping it private leaves room to discuss.
