Hi guys, I applied for Analyst 3, Business Applications my job scope is Siemens Camstar/Opcenter related but received an interview invite for Developer 4, Programming (SQL)

currently job at 5.3k, great benefits and flexibility with hybrid working of 3 weeks WFH monthly, the usual 13 months salary, 5 % annual increment and avg of 2 months bonus annually. wanted to know if the job has much better salary range before I agree for the interview

type wrong, 2 months

oh damn, i didnt know it was this bad. btw, is 5% increment avg for mnc ? or you have to be top performer,etc ? i heard from my dad back then in intel 1-2% avg basically need rely on promotion

i see, so pretty much senior gau gau position

for my current position is more like mid level, just a bit above entry, but promotion is hard, all the consultants in company are pretty bright, I am like average performer. I feel like needing to jump, being too comfy here for too long. good benefits but average increment isnt cutting it

yeah, just had the interview just now, actually the interview is for Business Application Analyst position but they already confirmed a good candidate, so they use this position for interviewing me, the actual job scope is for that Analyst position that I applied for, its more of a level 2 support role for Camstar/ Opcenter development.

the interview is mostly fine, got stuck at the final technical question, could have done better although I did answer most of the question well enough

we got talk about job scope but not job level and salary range, the ones interviewing me are technical ppl, i am not sure about the salary range, previously before interview i ask recruiter, she say 10k ( i dont actually believe so, that may be the ceiling of the job), but I figure to wait until got offer letter only nego from my experience from interview years ago. if difference too much then obviously our expectation between role and salary not same. Wif advice from a friend that is my senior, I just put high salary expectations (8k, not that I expect that salary, but its easier to nego down than nego up the salary, just put a high figure and see what they might offer instead)

just now receive another call from WD recruiter, is Analyst 3 position, my requested salary around 7k range, they say they will discuss and see if they can offer 7 or above, but its on high end range of the position's salary

they interested in 1 month buyoff, they will discuss and give me a reply (i think with offer) earliest by tmr


EDIT: 50% increment on basic salary, no fixed allowance. overall, 41% increment vs old gross salary

so far so good, pretty friendly within my dept, did notice a colleague from other team not on good terms with some of my team but so far I on good terms with everyone

yes, its WFH on Fridays, just apply business for all fridays at the start of every month.

for flexi hours, if you come to office early, you can go back early, if you come to office late, just go back late. my colleagues and I go bac at 5pm usually as we clock in at 8am usually

my last job is WFH 3 weeks monthly

not in offer letter, but orientation time, the slides will mentioned for normal shift professionals, because every dept and team diff, not everyone WFH same day. but should be no problem getting approval, my manager instant approval, so did other teams managers that I knew

working pressure is ok, unless got major problem, i am not sure about other dept but IT dept does need to always on call, in a way that if got major problem that affects production, need fix ASAP. but wont always have problem. always on call just means if received error email or group chat someone post about serious problem, take a look if its under your responsibilities, usually weekends are worry-free for us

yes, still 1 day WFH for my team, heck, I just told my manager on Sunday that I will be WFH on Monday because of coming back late from KL on Sunday night. yes flexible working hours, janji 9 hrs since you first clock in. I come in at 7:50am i left at 4:50pm. havent use new building, maybe Sept.

I dont think 2x haha, the STI Bonus goal achieved is 138% this year, and need to see pay grade and performance too. My colleague get less than a month bonus, mine got pro rated as I joined mid March, 36% of salary

Yes, park slightly far, for me, a two to three minute walk maybe, i don't mind, can exercise. I always arrived around 7:50am, some times got lucky, have parking at the front of the building
