The interviewer asks about your salary expectations to get an idea of your level of experience and value in the industry. They also want to ensure that the salary offered is within your range and meets your expectations. It's important to be honest and realistic about your salary expectations while also considering the industry standards and your qualifications. Remember to negotiate if necessary, but always remain professional and respectful throughout the process.
