I recently had a screening interview at an insurance carrier for a manager role. I'm worried I priced myself out of the role. The role had a posted salary range but it was about a 100k wide. I was asked what my salary expectations were, and I asked about the range. The interviewer gave me this long, convoluted explanation that the range was for the life of the role. I'm in a HCOL area. I gave my range which was well above their floor but well below their ceiling. Thoughts?

When the given range is 100,000 dollars wide, that is huge. It does kind of put you in a really hard spot to give an answer. That is probably around what I would have given too, something not at the top, but certainly not on the bottom either.
