Why the employer called u up for interview...but then told u that ur salary expectation is high? Like 650 - but I put 1.6k? They are just wasting our time.

er... i dun get what you mean.. probably they want u to lower you salary

same with me...

I was informed @ jobstreet with at least 1.8k - 2.3k before i join the company. But then, when i am here, they pay lesser than that ! (i'm not in probationary period anymore)

650 ?? what kind of job is that ??

I mean my expected salary in resume rm1.6k, but then they told u..that is relatively higher than what they expect to pay u.

if u r fresh grad degree .. or diploma with exp .. then i think its ok ..
but u have to look at company itself, big or small? multi or local ?

but then again, find another company that can pay ur salary as expected

KL - Write your expected salary at around 1.6k onwards.
Klang - Write your expected salary at around 1.2k onwards.
Terengganu - Write your expected salary at around 800 onwards.

Cool ?

Don't let the company saves cost. If you think you are quality and worth to be hired, don't make yourself looks cheap. If they still not willing to pay you high salary, go other company.

agreed.

can you imagine, a very classes office at klcc, call me up, i just state 1.3k raw, since it said above 1k. bla..bla..bla..

result: they say ur salary will be 800. haha \o/.

lol i usually odnt bother companies who awre not willing to pay my expected salary.
my salary that i demand is market standard and i make sure that i am able to do those task list. if they cant afford to pay me then they dont deserve me.

i usually ask for 100 below the standard. if mnc then higher offcourse but normally i mentain rm 100 lower to reduce negotiation as i hate that part of the whole employing process.

If they cant afford to pay me then i will look elsewhere.
but offcourse always make sure that your asking salary is within logical limits lah. Dont put 2-3 k for jobs like those in jaya jusco and such.

hmmm....how about fresh grad putting RM1.8k who is majoring in networking?
is it sounds acceptable?

my classmate put 2.5k...and i think he has gone nutz....

yes its acceptable
but then usually mnc's pay that much. target mnc's.
Usually u can put 1.8-2k which sounds just about right for a fresh grad.
good luck

oh...Thx for your opinion n wishes...hehe...
having my interview on next wednesday... near KLCC...sales management trainee...(dun think it related to my field although it is a company offer broadband service) ..

I think is more like a reseller. Trust your instincts on the job description.

LOL...then did u accept the job which 500 lower than ur expected?

if u have the qualities that they want, few hundreds more than std salary isn't much. they'll pay for it.

a fresh degree holder in a 4 star local hotel.

just tell them, don't waste time and ask them "u don't understand english? It is stated there clearly"

Can I ask more if I had an honoury degree? than a 2nd class degree?
