You should provide your salary expectations prior to reaching the interview stage otherwise you are potentially wasting your time. I once asked an internal recruiter the salary (as to not waste each other's time) and he returned a tirade of abuse about me not clearly being a good fit if money is my only focus. The guy organises a few meetups as well, fair to say I'll avoid anything he touches at all costs. Edit: if you publish/ let me know the the range, I'm happy to interview.
