hey... there's another thread in this forum , this guy getting paid rm3k per hour.. another thread i think he is even more 'superman' than me

well, the catch here is :- make sure the system is up 24 hours a day , 7 days a week.

tat's why i'm still online and working now. But then working hour flexible loh, as long the system is up and running. I used to go all around the world (the company's country offices) and meet their top management, get their requirements, then write specification, does the implementation, and get their 'nod'.

but the main reason is , they can't find any other cognos consultant as good as me yah.. monthly quite risky , so must make sure they cannot live without u loh... they've been trying to convert me to permanent position, but i kinda reluctant, so they just extend my contract loh.... see what the HR decides lah

Such as ? Lamma island ?

i am a freshie but i stated 2.8 k negotiable in my resume as expected salary. do you guys think its appropriate ?

2.8k ringgit i assume
a bit high for freshie...
what industry, profession, qualification???

it depends also on the company.
MNC of course can ask for more ler... compared to a sdn bhd

BASF? mind to tell which office u r sitting in?

BASF malaysia? They dun have BI here, are you saying BW? I'm in BASF right now as well...

wao...that's pretty high.
As I know, not many companies offer that high except you aim for management trainee program offered by foreign banks or financial institutions.

so u from foreign university with first class degree?

from local uni with first class..sheesh i should lower my expectations then.

do not put too low. coz now u must consider inflation.
rm2.5k is the max.. thats my opinion..

yeah because i consider inflation, thats why i put 2.8k, but then i stated negotiable, i'm afraid that they might make it a point not to hire me..

If they want you they will nego with you. Those that didnt call you back doesn't mean because you put high expected salary, it's because they found better candidate or you doesn't fit their criteria.

okay, that means that its acceptable for me to put 2.8 k, maybe 2.7 would be better.

Do you set a target for yourself that "those jobs with salary under 2XXX I won't accept?" So you're expecting a job in KL or your hometown? (which you put penang)

For me I would rather put negotiable on my resume or I would totally won't mention that on my resume unless the job description specifies that I have to tell my expected salary.

For freshie, 2,500 is reasonable.
those pay >2,800 for freshie? I know only public bank, CIMB, HSBC (all under management trainee programs). Others pay those high might be MNCs which I'm not so sure about that.

Those with higher pay will have higher selection standard which means academic performance is not the only thing they look. I know both CIMB & HSBC have 4 selection stages.

What you put the expected salary in your resume doesnt matter, as long as you show them you are qualify for their requirement. The salary only will be discuss at the interview or after them confirm want to hire you.

Of course my meaning not asking you to put some ridiculous amount of expected salary for a freshie.

nope, we do have a BI team to serve the upper management. It's a small team, unlike the BW team, they serve middle operation/management reporting.

oh... ic ... mind to tell who r u serving?

if without exp and at least diploma i'll consider it's ok for that amount. some more, it's not KL or Penang. i assume that ipoh living cost is much lower than both i mentioned.
