Looking at the posts on this sub I decided to ask a recruiter the salary range. To my surprise they gave me an estimation(the recruitor didn't know for sure because I wasn't considered for a specific post, at least not to my understanding, and they were going to decide after the technical interview if I am a good fit for any open position) based on my level of experience and other salaries in the company. The range was a lot higher than I expected, higher than I would have had the courage to ask for if I were to be the first to give a salary range.
I had a friend try the same thing and they didn't give her an estimation in text. They told her they will discuss that when they will have the final interview(which is usually after the technical interview).
