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.
hehe. overseas student mostly sponsored by gov or companies. which meant they pay absolutely almost nothing. some of these gov sponsored students are able to buy 6k gaming rig. i admit that not all of them are rich. but they're sponsored.And a typical chinaman company problem: Always press down someone's salary.

about urs statement that they need to (find a place to stay, pay electrical bills, cook by himself... etc, work as cleaners in restaurants during summer holiday). this is normal not only for overseas students. but also for some local students. local students have to works to pay all this while overseas stdents only work for extra cash. overseas also doesn't mean that they can work. i've work in multinational societies. and believe me. the institution only plays 30% role in building character. other 70% depends on urself. i've seen 2 of my engineer come from same institution. one work very well. the other is lame.
about typical company. well. lets say u're the boss. will u take sum stranger that got certs but u don't know if they can do the job or not to work for u and u pay them high salary? of course not right. people will see the performance 1st. after seen that they're appreciated only then.
it's not that i just wanna blast ur reply. juz that u're totally look down on our local grads.
