Hr screening. If they’re not going to be ok with a certain range, I typically won’t even interview so I don’t waste my time or theirs. Unless the opportunity itself is something amazing and I wouldn’t care as much about the salary

Target vs x%?

HR screen if they are worth their salt. If not, beware.

In my experience, during the the offer call. I expressed a general range early on, then a hard number is put on the table. My call went something like "So you said $x, we're offering $y. How does that sound?" and that's when I countered/had the discussion.
