I would think about my main interest first before thinking about how much I can earn.

Career is something that you will probably live with for years, if you choose only because of it's good money but not really your interest, you might end up frustrated with work loads.

Not sure about IT field but for engienering field ... with 5 years exp 3.8k is totally underpaid. Freshie can get 3.2k from a decent MNC for engineering. I guess you know if you are underpaid or not.


Cheers.

no..not familiar with IT things.thanks if u can explain further

well for normal user like me...sharepoint is used to share all your documents with your team or colleagues..it's also can be said as content management..it's like a central site for everyone to update the reports etc with a single click..something like that

sort of understand u.some company they use them within their company.but how can salary be so high?more than 5k?

what he said is like wad an end user can be done in sharepoint. For the sharepoint developer, they can customise a lot on the sharepoint. Nowadays, a lot company was using dis as online kpi or project management.

okay..mean developer of sharepoint can earn much.

currently if i'm not mistaken not so many ppl doing sharepoint development..that's why can get quite a good figure..even my company also is still searching for sharepoint engineers eventhough there are already a number of engineers inside the company.. perhaps they are expanding so the demand is there

wow, you are doing great sad for me

what about System Center related products

Microsoft is actively marketing their next gen System Center line of products

in the future maybe there will be..who knows

It depends on the type & size of project he is working on. Also depends on the size of company. No general rule to salaries in construction.

Do you mean, ms system center operation manager ( scom) ? I would say that this is kind of demanding right now, at least what i heard from the industry and yes, if you are somekind of pioneer, it would be great.

anyone know where i can get part time study,age 24, salary basic 2.8k allow 200 commision 800 to 2k want to upgrade my self.

i think so.i heard from my friend that his friend do not have good results in secondary school.but then took up course that related to this field,and with 2 years of experience(starting from fresh grad),he easily achieve >rm4k a month.

You can just mentioned if you want to get part time study without revealing your current earnings dont get angry, jokes only.

So, if you free on weekend, maybe you can go for off campus study, examples. SPACE UTM.

If you want to do part time, such as once in month class, other institute are available, such as Open University, UiTM, or UKM.

Added on June 27, 2012, 9:36 pmIts simple, if you have interest on what field you are doing and you work hard to achieve the skills and experience of that particular field, i believe you can get much better than that.

SharePoint is kind of intranet portal, you share you documents among colleagues around the world, no need to send much emails, just provide links that sufficient. Collaborate with your team members by enable discussion without having to meet if you located in different countries.. and so on.. so much you can do with SharePoint. As for my job, my task is to make sure that all the functions in SharePoint are working fine and if issue comes up, i need to troubleshoot and re mediate as soon as possible.
