I'm doing interviews, and I wanted to get an idea of what other people are doing. Say a position offers a pay range between 50-65k. In my interview with HR (first interview), should I try to provide a more narrow range? for instance, " Based on my skills and experience, I'd expect a range between 56-60k" Or should I just tell them the range offered is good for me and let them actually provide an offer? This is of course assumes the entire range is acceptable to me. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I’m an overconfident asshole who always gives my asking price

The kicker is that I’ve always had a job when looking at new jobs so I was always prepared to walk away from negotiations.

If you want to gauge whether that range is a real or bs range ask them what a low end vs high end recruit looks like.
