Salary expectations: how do you answer? - what worked for you?

I do not know whether to give a range or ask for theirs. It has been a long 26 weeks. I do not want to price myself out. What did you say?

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

Benefits matter too. A slightly lower rate with better coverage was better for me.
