hey! i went.

5 interviewer~

 

Can any bros review wat's the salary range for a tech?

And the allowance for shift worker?

Just estimate can liao

if can't post. pm me can?

 

I'm trying to bargain for the best package

Salary range:

 

That depends mainly on ur entry level like; education qualification, past experiences etc... basically, there is L4 ~ L9 levels for tech... salary range is different for each level... Fresh dip without experience ~ $1400 range...

 

Allowance for shift worker

 

$695 ~ $750 depending on the site u r in... $750 for Bukomers....

 

 

I'm trying to bargain for the best package

 

Yeah... Try ur best to bullshit them... but the best package is still depending on your worth... they won't wanna pay peanuts for monkeys too...

 

 

:goodluck:

Tat is so bec these big coys have bigger plant area size than others... Manpower wise also more... in fact everything (e.g wages) included in e fixed overheads will be more... thus, they'll wanna "restructure" by reducing manpower size to cut down the fixed overheads... so eventually u find urself multi-tasked to do more chores than others having more or less e same pay in smaller coys...

 

:sorry:
