do u know why?
cos IEM n BEM are controlled by the bosses of engineering companies... if they push to raise the salary of engineers, it would mean that they have to fork out more to pay their engineers... |

QUOTE(ShrugsLova @ May 26 2011, 02:24 PM) That's actually what in my mind also, that's why I choose Ipoh. Maybe in R&D line...other engineering..i'm not sureI have another question, do you think you can raise your salary to 5-6k in 3 years time. Cause I'm getting an offer to further my studies in PhD. Most of the PhD holders told me that once you have a PhD (Engineering) your salary will be at least 5-6k even when you are fresh grad without experience. Thanks alot. well, it depends on what u do for your PhD as well if it's related and will be beneficial to the company, maybe they will pay that amount... |
