Sorry but to ask...

I received call frm TARUC in setapak for a business lecturer interview.

I have mba and doing my doctorste now. 7 yrs experience of teaching diploma n degree

Any1 can guide me wht shld i ask for the salary?

Thanks

thats quite a lot!
best of luck

intern already got diploma level punya salary..
good luck bruh

I think the figure are too ambitious. According to my friend teaching in UTAR, Kampar the salary range for Prof. is around RM15K-20K, Dr. is around RM10K.. Perhaps in Setapak salary range is higher but certainly not till that figure.

You can't be taking him seriously. With 7 years worth of experience, what's your expected and what's their range?

PS: Serious question - is it up to market value?? More?? Less??

Thats why i moved, anyway salary is not everything.

Wahh so many rich people here. My current salary is just 2.2 after 1 year into this company. Been looking for other jobs but with useless degree (science) no one gonna hire me. And with my company facing trouble due to cheap steel prices I can say bye2 to bonus and increment. But location is not kl and there's home provided to employee so I don't need to pay toll and rent.

I'm thinking of taking SAP cert. How much and duration of the study? Is there pre-requisite requirements?

So fast v7

+ point to you.

you have all the salary in the toughest job as you see your health draining. Unless you keep yourself fit in fitness

I felt that i am underpaid.

Now much you think you should be getting paid?

For what i currently do, much much more. Its a chinaman company

I assume you just started work since you put fresh. I guess don't put money as major consideration. Even Chinaman company have something different for you to learn. I suggest you look at experience wise first. Money will come sooner or later when you are getting better at what you do.

But in reality, we must put money in priority because of burdens we bear. sigh.

If there's not much of commitment you need to bare, then is fine la. Because experience can really exchange with money.

But if you like me, everything is memang money first.

takla money makan pasir. kudo

2.8k. Complain underpaid. U should be grateful that you can get that salary. many fresh graduates out there their salary is lower than u.

I specialize eat shit more than assign other ppl eating shit.

you're doing great at your age. You prefer to be on the management side but currently in technical line for network / servers. Maybe try to take up PMP cert so that you can be on the consultant line later? Usually people would go for Cisco Certs but since you dont want to forward to technical line... PMP i think best for you

But he say exp before join us 0 yr and only 1 yr in company. Do u mean the next 10 yr only earn 6K?
