I felt like I am sort of underpaid. Theres no commission & bonus. Starting my mindset was like, just get a job first.. Don't care about pay & earn experience. Now I sort of regretted. I rejected a 2.5k job because I thought this place have better 'working environment' which is very wrong.
Before I jump ship, what's the reasonable salary to expect with a 1 year experience? If I put my expected salary as 2.8k will the future employer shock of the increase?
Stay for a year. It's better for your resume.
Rule of thumb for fresh grad is 2.5k although it varies depending on industry.
Honestly, I think 2.8k is reasonable for someone with one year of experience under their belt. My suggestion: put 3k, and put negotiable in brackets beside that.
That way, even if your employer wants to press, you will still get your desired salary.
