Job Title : Assistant Architect? / Architect Intern?
Job Desciption :
Years spent in company : One month
Company : Local firm
Industry : Architecture industry
Tenure : 1 year
Employment Level : Fresh grad (Part 1)
Experience before joining : N/A
Highest paper qualification/ education background : Degree (Part 1 Architecture)
salary : RM1500
Location: KL

Before saying anything, I know I did the wrong move. At first, I only decided to enter this firm as my friend recommended his father's firm. Thus, thinking that I already had a secure job position, I didn't apply to other firms. However, on my first day of job, I just realized the firm treated me as an intern, not a full time employee. I'm not looking for internship, cause I am a full degree graduated student.

For architects out there, is it normal or do I need to find somewhere else? RM1.5k (allowance not salary!) is a joke for a degree graduate. Even sales assistant at cyber cafe downstairs below of my office can earn more for just SPM qualification. The problem is I will be continuing my Part 2 studies within a year, so seeking a full time job for just 7-8 months doesn't sound plausible.
