Interviewed a firm yesterday at 10 AM. Four hours later, my colleague got a call from the same firm asking if he was interested in going to work for them. The recruiter sent me an analyst job and told me to apply for that... entire experience felt like a bit of a screw you. Can I get some other perspectives?

I got a call from KPMG HR for the role of Associate consultant in research team, When she asked me about the expected ctc, I think I quoted less than the market standards but since I am underpaid currently so the amount I quoted was 40-45% hike on my fixed. I have experience of 2.9years
Can anybody please suggest if I clear their interviews will they consider increasing CTC from whatever I quoted becase upon searching for ACon roles they pay much higher than what I quoted.
Please Help
