automatic post expiry for edited posts

If you are going to allow the user to edit the form from the frontend, there is no need to do anything here as it should remember the post expiration time set for 90 days.

I am building a job site where employers will fill a form to submit job offers. I set an exipration date of 90 days on these posts.
I also would like to allow them to modify their job offer via another form but I don't want to change the original expiration date of 90 days from the initial publication date.

On the form editing the existing content what should I do : should I set no specific expiry date and the system will understand we keep the original 90 days expiry ? Or is there a trick ?

Thanks in advance
