You need to start looking elsewhere.

I hope you are getting commissions. Or else, even for a fresh grad job, the pay is too low. Don't waste your starting years at a place that squeezes you like that. It is 2014, that is the starting pay for fresh grads in 2004.

RM 1.8k is almost what admins get nowadays.

From what I gathered so far, market is lacking engineers. When I say engineers, I mean people who really know their shit.

Without a degree I'm sure your salary is consider high with only 7 years experience.. good luck and continue the work bro.. I am sure you must do quite well in your task as business development or you talk really well


with only 4 years experience I think your pay is really well. Keep up the good work.

Junior level with 2 years experience you've already earning 5k plus OT. I'm sure you're doing quite well. Keep up the good work.

the sky is your limit.

maybe you can check in those salary report published by kellyservices or jobstreet?

Degree is nothing these days. I am sure I will hire people with more than 5 yrs diff exp than someone less than 5yrs exp with degree. I got many bizplan from people proud of they are drop out from uni to pursue their passion

In the Corporate World, you go through a department called HR which will use a degree as a filter.
Unless 1 is able to get in touch with the upper management, a degree is a passport to obtain a job, besides attitude and skill set.

Not really. It might be important for an entry level job or a very technical one because it implies an basic understanding of the theoretical knowledge or simply the industry practice, but for senior roles experience and achievements far trump and degree you can flash.

Take a stock check around the successful people, you will be surprise at how little they talk or even care about a degree.

Do allow me to elaborate further but I won't go into too much details.

In the beginning, getting interviews have always been a challenge. And the fact that I did not finish my degree will definitely make it the highlight of the interview. I am also very upfront about this as I have my valid reasons.

There will always be a layer of doubt when the interview starts. But once I get under that layer of doubt, it's all smooth sailing and my hit rate for getting offers are in the region of 80% (always a headache to choose between several offers all at the same time).

What Azurika pointed out is very true as HR filters hundreds of resumes according to their own criteria. But what fuzzy said is also true, because a degree is merely a gauge to judge a person's understanding of 'basics', which is what we study in our degree courses.

Out in the real world, almost nothing is textbook like. Which is why experience and skills are imperative and more valuable to many people.

Luck has played a major role as well, but a friend once told me that we make our own luck when I talked to him about my career some time ago.

However, make no mistake that although I am proud of what I have achieved, I am not proud of not having a degree.

at kelana jaya...dont hv comisson also haha..but all the comp I apply offer me below 2.5k...when i attend the interview they said gonna call me back but nothing happen hahaha so thats y i just stick to my current job ...

Even for kampung place like kch here that is among the lowest price mang.... What more to say ur in KL.....
