No. It is not wise for fresh graduates to choose their jobs. Apply whatever job that states "Fresh Graduates are encourage to apply" .

sorry for late reply. anyway, fresh grad tend to have higher chances of getting into a company whereby they offer positions for fresh grads. however, fresh grads could also apply for those positions which require 1-2 years experience. they (the company) might look into your application if your results is good.

It's definitely alright for fresh grads to choose their job.

People work for money too, it does not make sense for a Degree graduate to settle for a 1.3k job at KL. And I am lucky that I did not make decision too fast and waited for a while so that I can work in a company that I'm satisfied with now.

But please also be noted that it's a competitive world thus it's not easy to get your dream job right after you graduated. It's however easier to get a job if
- You can communicate well in English
- You've good results and had experience in Industrial Training/Practical
- You speak the right thing and show the right attitude during interview.
- You are not showing your strong desire in salary during interview.

You've the right to choose, but be realistic. Don't give too high hopes on getting 3K salary in your first job right after graduation. As long as it's not too low and you think you like the job and should be able to learn many things from it, go for it.

For me, I don't think it's dumb to choose a job with a low pay salary. As long as you feel that you could survive with that amount, then it's your choice. smile.gif
