Hi nodee and everyone else ! smile.gif

I just got offered by SWIFT as a Junior Associate System Developer as a fresh grad. They offered a base salary of ~3k per month plus some good insurance+social benefits. I have no complains about the benefits but the base salary seems to be on the lower side of KL standard.

I had offers from other MNC companies for ~4k per month with some basic insurance coverage (good enough if you dont get hit by a car on a monthly basis lol.gif). But I really like SWIFT for their environment and values and was wondering how far is the base salary negotiable??

Anyway your input is very appreciated biggrin.gif

Fusionex is a local based mnc that pays 4k for nonshitty new grads, so it's not that rare. But you can read their glassdoor reviews to see their work life balance. Swift's salary ranges are pretty much above 4k or 4.5k -8k ranges, so I find it odd to see 3k if it's the case.

I know right? I was under the impression they liked my profile (not perfectly but ok I'm willing to learn).

Anyway do you know about SWIFT personally or through friends? Did they get the same thing when they applied?

thanks dude!! but actually i did a very specialized IT Masters in a prestigious school overseas smile.gif (results sucked tho haha)... most of the standard developers markets (JAVA/C#) are highly competitive and the companies are taking in alot of Indian nationals for technical stuffs and angmo for management stuffs (saves costs)... Malaysians really need to step up their game to compete...

I applied for a Java role...
1) HR + technical test on Monday
2) Technical interview on Tuesday

They called on Tuesday night to make an offer... As you can see from the comments some process are quite long and some are freaking short! I thinks it all depends on who's available at the office to interview you, and I was lucky my interviewers were available on such short notice lol...

SWIFT and sending SWIFT message is secure. Nothing to wonder.

The bangladesh central bank was just trying to SWIFT half the blame to SWIFT so they don't look too bad for missing 81m and potential billions.

Curious to know what's the size of the company now. Received a call to attend for interview for Global Learning & Development. Most people who shared their experiences here went for interview for IT related position. Anyone like me? not for IT related position? icon_rolleyes.gif
