The only "good" I see is, with or without projects, you still get pay RM1k every month.

He was referring to "s7ran9er" post. The paid 1k per month is with and without project. If I'm not mistaken it's a freelance work, no work also get 1K then can source for other freelance job.

Yup it's 1K per month... unless you are given other task / responsibility, then that will be more than 1k.

Dude come on. If your experience is only 4 months, then you're more of a Junior Designer. So I'm guessing you've more than 4 months.

Try an MNC or some other HUGE local co.The salary will be at least 2.5, 2.8 if you've a degree. And seriously, I know people are like 'oh no point doing a degree', but TRUST ME. MNC cos (the ones who can actually pay you with decent hours and benefits, not like MNC advertising cos- crazy hours) want degree holders.

Co's like Sime Darby, any Pharmaceutical co's, education providers (Taylor's Uni etc). Primary preference given to degree holders. I knew someone who worked there after graduation and got 2,500 as their first pay. This was back in 2007 maybe. STill, pretty good.

Hard to say, but you could try for about 4k maybe? If it's an exec position then I suppose for big co's like those I mentioned they might be able to pay that much. But seriously their benefits are so much much more better than the MNC advertising agencies. Working hours will be better too.
