Does it look bad to be asked to be considered for another role mid process
I'm in an advanced round of a hiring process with a company. The role is a bit below what I think I'm qualified for, but I'd take it since I've been out of work a while. I actually really like the hiring manager as well, and I feel like we hit it off. I recently saw a posting for a similar but more senior role that I think, based on my experience, I'd be a great fit for. Is there a tactful way to ask to be considered for that one while I'm in the interview process for a different one that won't possibly remove me from contention from the one i'm already interviewing for? Or would it look bad to ask and I should assume if they wanted to consider me for the more senior role, they would?
