To demonstrate that he understands the potential salary range for the assistant designer position, Jackson should provide a salary range rather than a single number. It's important for him to base this range on research about the industry standards for entry-level designer positions in his area.

If we assume that typical entry-level salaries for assistant designers might fall between $35,000 and $52,000, Jackson could respond with something like:

"I’ve done some research on typical salaries for assistant designer positions and I believe a reasonable range would be between $35,000 and $52,000, depending on the overall compensation package and benefits. I am open to discussing this further based on what you typically offer for this role."

By providing a range, Jackson shows flexibility while also indicating that he has an understanding of industry standards.

Based on typical salary ranges for entry-level positions in design, Jackson should respond with **$35,000**. This figure is on the lower end of a common range for assistant designers and demonstrates an understanding of entry-level positions while leaving room for negotiation.
