Work / Salaries in corporations vs elsewhere in Poland; interview procedures [8]

Hello.

Hello everyone. I am new here.

I am currently having some interviews for different job positions. I don't speak Polish, but I speak English quite well and Italian, + some useless language and some basic German. I have a short work history.

At the first moment at the phone interviews I said maybe too low salaries, is it a problem? Can I still change it for 50-100 eur? Will they take care of what I said at first? Do they have some special psychological tricks, like in the end they offer you a slightly lower salary from the lowest salary you said in the interview?

How much should I expect for a work in a travel agency? And in customer sevice with Italian? And in the position of executive assistant of bosses with English? The 2 last jobs are in big corporations in Krakow.

What and why would you recommend?

Thank you for the answers.

Aha.
Well, I have my own reasons why to work here.
And what do you think about changing the expected salary and saying a bit higher one? Is it somehow possible? Like saying, that for the beginning I would be ok with 3500, but after some time and getting more serious and responsible tasks, I would like my salary to be higher.

I said to one company from 3500 to 4000, but then I read on internet, that in this company they pay much more. For another one, that is known for paying low salaries, I said the same amount, but I think, the position is worth more, according to the tasks you have. Well, I am always saying, that I am not that familiar with the system of salaries in Poland.

I have some important experience also in the fields required, but not a lot, since I am not that old. I speak foreign languages and I have a master degree.

How is it to ask for a contract long 6 or more months? Or to ask to have a higher salary after few months? And agree about that on paper?

I would just like to have a real idea on how much should I expect for these roles. Especially for an executive assistant of bosses. It sounds a demanding work, but I have no idea about the salary.
