Salary expectations: how do you answer? - 2 months and counting

I have been out of work for 25 weeks and feel pressure to accept less. I worked as an operations analyst before this. I looked up ranges in Honolulu and they vary a lot.

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it last year, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.

Asking about the range for the role first worked for me. Some recruiters share it.
