<human>: Had an interview this afternoon (only my third in three years job hunting and first in a year), for a company that was doing open interviews for a new branch in my area. The interviewer asked me what my salary expectations were. I was a bit thrown by the question but said, "Whatever the range is for the job," then added, "If you're asking for a specific number, $10 per hour." (The job listing on Indeed said all positions would be paid $9 per hour.)

Now I'm wondering if perhaps I made a mistake in adding the $10 per hour clarification. Unlike my two previous interviews, this was an open interview as I mentioned and the interviewer didn't ask me any of the questions I had heard before. I assume they would hold those types of questions for a second interview if they call me, but I never had the salary question come up on a first interview.

Can you give me the gist of the text in a nutshell?
<bot>: was asked about salary expectations on first interview, answered "Whatever range the position is," then clarified, "$10 per hour," now wondering if I made a mistake in how I answered the question.
