Is it normal or ethical to ask for W-2's when in a job interview?

Like W2s from your current job?

Yes. Salary stubs..etc.

They want to know how little they can get away with paying you

Not normal, not sure about ethical. Sounds like a cheap, mickey mouse boss.

They can verify salary without asking for that...

Exactly. Very easy to verify it without asking for the W2

I guess I see that as personal private information.

Yes. I'm in sales and it is common.

And the corollary, no one believes a salesman?

No, don't give it. If they ask what you made, always respond with what you want

Unless that's the only way they'll offer...

I've gotten the previous salary of every person I've hired

Sales is probably different, but for most salaried positions, I would not give

I agree with this

Not normal, I wouldn't want to work at a company that thinks that way

I suppose they could ask. I'd ask to see their corporate budget for the position

Not to mention it is likely not allowed by your current employer
