They asked my salary range, what should I say?, IT help-desk technician here

I do not know whether to give a range or ask for theirs. It has been a long 20 weeks. I looked up ranges in Baltimore and they vary a lot. How do you research fairly?

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

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