QUOTE(happy_berry @ Jul 15 2016, 11:35 PM) Why should age even matter? I thought what matters most is your experience, career satisfaction/ expectation, etc. Age matters in some industry, some bank for example HSBC, they annually review staff based on age, seniority, certification, and performance. Some employer like my current company (UK based) also favors to elder one every time they are looking for senior position to fill up. |

QUOTE(zephyrus9999 @ Jul 16 2016, 06:04 PM) Lol? I'm on the same boat but the other way round. I'm from pmt and feel like going back to technical. Got a good degree in chemical and don't feel like wasting it. OnG not doing well, and lack of projects. My skills is not as transferable like a Chem or process engineer. And I am easily replaceable, merely a focal point coordinator that every fresh grad can do. I believe u feel the same too. Our career path moves to a PM, and most PM works like dog but rewarding. When recession, hard to find a specific job out there. Change industry also difficult compared to a generalist chem/proc eng. Yes you point out my concern.. my position can actually be replace by any fresh grad. And i dont find any specialty in my current job position. Just a matter of time you will forget how to use your simulation software etc lol I think is how u view and enjoy it Shake hand bro... |

Is it just me, or people with low pay don`t share theirs here?

Anyways, here`s mine ========== Job Title : R&D Technician Job Description : System integration (I do more then expected compare to other technician, like same job as engineer). Report direct to manager. No one under me. I do my job, done, i go back home. Years spent in company : 5 Company : Local Industry : Defence / R&D / Aviation Tenure : Permanent Employment Level : Fresh Experience before joining : 0 Highest paper qualification/ education background : Diploma (electrical) salary : 1.5 -> 1.6 -> 1.8 -> 2k -> 2.3k -> 2.5k Location: KL others: Working hours: 8 hours 5 days a week Bonus : 1-2 months Just completed my degree (electrical) and would expect a raise of RM300-500 maybe.
