It will depend on your technical round feedback - if feedback is negative, salary expectation does not matter. Better strategy is to quote a negotiable number. Usually if co wants to hire you, they will negotiate for sure. Thats your hint.

Make sense - take a junior role with less salary - build on your technical knowledge and then switch to bigger roles……

Because you need job badly

I saw someone else do this, so imma give it a shot. Lately, I’ve been applying to iOS developer roles and I’m getting TONs of calls and callbacks from HR and recruiting managers, but then when my resume gets pushed to hiring managers they seem to often get peeved at how little years of experience I have with the title “iOS developer”…
which is fair, and to show my credibility I published my first app last week, but I’m still getting similar messages from recruiters this week. Idk what to do??
