my salary in mid, or lower, or higher rank than mid???
Pls tell me every1, i need to know my standing

And the purpose of the comparison? Does it really matter? Fresh grads in SIngapore is getting S$4,000 in Citibank, so you decide where you stand.

Eh bro, you are doing sales in which line?

A lot of people hate job hopping. Always need to attend interview.

But it is hard to get a nice job, This world is boring.

I think it's reasonable that an overseas graduate demand more, even RM2500 is a bit less, they should be paid around the range of RM3000-RM4000 depends on location. Please bear in mind that those who graduated from overseas have certain qualities that local graduates don't have, you can't hire someone ONLY based on their results. For example an overseas graduate need to stay far from his family, be independent, interact with people with totally different background, settle most of the stuff by himself (find a place to stay, pay electrical bills, cook by himself... etc), and some of them even work as cleaners in restaurants during summer holiday. These experience might not be significant, but certainly will develope the capabilities of someone in terms of handling problems and difficulties... Of course my statements are exclude those who are super rich and their parents flew to see them 5 times a year and settle everything for them.

And a typical chinaman company problem: Always press down someone's salary. I told my boss last time that money maybe is not everything, but it CERTAINLY will motivate the employees, the more you pay, the more the employees feel appreciated (tell me if I'm wrong!), don't expect to pay a price of a kancil and hope to drive it like a ferrari... you pay the price of a kancil, you will get a kancil (even if you boost the engine you will need to add more money). Always keep that in mind.

If you are the boss and you have a budget for your employees' salary, my advise to you is to hire less people and increase their salary, rather than hire a bunch of people and everyone getting very little pay.

Yes, Oil and Gas pays well. But still not as good as running a business. Cheers.

that's alot....but they these are managing levels..non-engineers.

I think you are underpaid. But no worries, at least you are in O&G and still young, many opportunities will come.

Thanks. But I'm dilemma on whether to jump to other industries as there's jobs offering more salary than my current one.

Might be tempting. Once you are out for a few years, you will have a hard time coming back to O&G. Be patient ... I was in 3K+ for the first few years. And then .. you can be more demanding.

I've interviewed a few fresh graduates asking for salary above RM2500, reason is they graduated from oversea and some because they are 1st class honour. Honestly, I won't choose those fresh graduate who demand so much. At last, I choose a fresh graduate with CGPA 3.65 and expected salary is RM2000. I offered her RM1700 + allowance + commission and she accepted. After 6 months, she can perform and I increased her salary to RM2000. I think the most importance is you love the job, put effort to perform the best, innovative and learn. Your boss will knew it. If they don't appreciate you, learn everything and jump la.

Yahh...might be true..but my current job experience are a non-carry forward experience to other company in future. That's why I'm in confusion.
That's the problem with Malaysian. Obviously, these people are spoiling the market. Some say they can hire a fresh graduate with CGPA 3.70 for RM1.8K. Then it smells like those who have lower CGPA will be getting less than that. Salary increase depends on management as well. Some just pretend as they dun see the well performed employee yet they also did not request for further increment. They knew, and they offers you when you wanna jump.
