Salary expectations: how do you answer? (Charlotte)

    A recruiter asked for my salary expectations on a first call as I look for work as a hotel front-desk agent. There are 10 people counting on me, so I am trying to be careful. I also do not want to sell myself short. Does giving a range hurt?

    I gave a range based on local postings and said I was flexible depending on the whole package. They did not push back.

    Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it 11 months ago, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
