I think Vault.com had something on that question...
I love that website. (omg, I'm a stealth marketter! *cries*)
I've been asked, and will usually find some sort of idea of what similar jobs pay and then give a $K range that has it in its middle. Of course, I've never been actually hired by a company that asked for my salary expectations, so it's a moo point.
