Salary Negotiation: How much to ask for

Question We're told that whoever mentions a number first in a salary negotiation loses. When employers also demand to know our current salary, that just makes matters worse. So what are we supposed to do in a job interview when this comes up? How do we know how much to ask for and when to do it?

I try to ask about salary compensation fairly early in the process. If it is a head hunter, or external recruiter then probably in the first call with them. Talking to the company directly then after the first interview. If they don't want to give a range I will give them mine. We don't need to agree on an exact number, but it isn't worth either of our time if they are only looking to pay half of what I am looking for.
