Amazon recruiter not giving numbers (L5)

So I cleared the interview and I was offered a job. The recruiter keeps asking me my target range . I do not know how to respond to that. They have not given me a number yet. Please help.

Range is 174ish-220ish. You’re raising the bar, so should be paid above median, and this is a game so you go high end or above. 215-225k could be your target range. Other people will likely say to ask for $250k or something but you’d have to have nailed it and been down leveled from L6 to get it.

This is accurate

Raising the bar can also means you are down level to raise the bar there.
