You should say something like this: "A pretty good salary. I plan to prove that to you, but right now I'll be happy to accept whatever company policy is for this position."
I agree with Associate I. Know the range that you're working with. I found out from HR, after the interviews, were complete, that the job paid $20/hr which was a 55% downward departure from my previous salary. Knowledge is power.
Do some research and figure out what is a reasonable salary for the company and the position. It’s better to aim a bit higher, but it still needs to be based on reality.
Try to find out all you can about what the company pays. And ask the interviewer what the salary range is for the position. It's always better to have them give a number first, and most legitimate companies will have no objection to doing that. Once they tell you the salary range you can estimate how someone with your experience would fall within the range. The upper end if usually unattainable, that would be for someone with extensive experience or someone who has some skill they need right away.
No matter the position interviewing for say, “I’d first like to understand the requirements of the job to better gauge the mission.” Any hiring manager will respect that. Because remember, the first one to flinch loses. Besides make them state the salary. If they don’t at some point you honestly don’t want to work there. Who wants to be lowballed?
Look up the company, and similar roles elsewhere, on Glassdoor and Levels.fyi. Usually it's a recruiter who handles the numbers questions. Put it off until you hear about the role if you can, otherwise give a range that starts in the middle of what your research showed and goes to the top.
