<prompt> Human: Throwaway due to people knowing main account and no one knowing we are looking to move.We are currently trying to relocate from Europe back to the US where we are originally from. My husband is in talks with a large company, has completed multiple phone interviews and is being flown out for an in person interview already scheduled. When they first responded to his application they sent him a list of questions which included current salary and expected salary. I admit we did not do as much research as we should have and we put a number that turns out is quite low 45-60k lower compared to what looks like average. Now that they are flying him out they want him to fill out another form and the question expected salary appears on it again. Since we have done more research now, is it okay for us to drastically change that first number we gave them? Or, will this reflect poorly on him? Another thing to consider is we have no idea what type of benefits this job includes other than the reviews on glassdoor which mention they are good but nothing else. Edit: When he applied, he applied for a job posting that said all levels so we wrote the first salary expectation based off that. Now that he has interviewed with multiple people they have told him they would like to consider him for a lead or senior position. So this too has affected the number that we figure we should have asked for.  <response>: Personally, I dont see why not. If I were the hiring manager in this situation, I wouldnt think much of it. He gave a range albeit without much research, for a starting position it sounds like. Now that the employer gave a more clear cut position theyd like to hire him for, Id say it is almost expected to change that number.I would still give reason as to why my number changed, however. I wouldnt just put down a new number. I would say something along the lines of, After researching the average for a senior or lead position in this area, along with my current experience in the field, I feel this would be an appropriate salary expectation. Or something to that effect. This is my opinion and also based off of jobs Ive been hired for. However, it would still be best to wait for other people to comment before making a decision.Source: I am involved in making hiring decisions for my team.Edit: Also, make sure you look at averages for that position in that area. Cannot stress that enough. Dont go to the Midwest expecting a salary from the East or West Coast kind of deal.
