“Your expected salary is TOO HIGH” Grabe, I thought it was okay to expect 20–23k with 1 year of internship experience. Pero sabi ng employer, “You’re a fresh grad—parang masyado pang mataas.”
But isn’t internship still real work? May OT, may pressure, and sometimes, not even paid.
Real talk: were my expectations too high, or was that just unfair? 😅

Ang sabi ni chatgpt dyan
Direct but Respectful (If someone is being dismissive):
"Being a fresh graduate doesn't mean my time and effort are worth less. I'm here to grow, but I also want to be valued fairly for what I bring to the table." Dagdagan mo ng “does that make sense?”

Dapat ganto every fresh grads, you did your research and know what's your worth kasi iniisip ng fresh grads di sila pwede makipag salary negotiate pero ang totoo every job interview may right ka to negotiate no matter what and valid 1 year of internship mo siguro di ka lang afford ng company na yan kaya wag mo damdamin words nila for sure makakahanap ka ng mas better opportunity

Had the same exp and sa harap ko sinabi ng owner ng company na ang taas daw ng expected ko (it was 20k) he wanted minimum wage for me and the HR said 16500 without any allowance. Also pointing out nataga PUP daw ako and dapat mag tyaga sa mababang sahod.
WAG KA PAPAYAG. Know your worth, be realistic pero wag papalowball

Always remember po andito po tayo sa pinas kahit may 4year grad kang dala and then 1 year of intern ship balewala parin yun kasi mas gusto nila na i hire yung 2 to 3 experience job related. Tapos po dont expect high salary on your first job based sa experience ko nag rarange lang sya 14 to 16k. Sana maka tulong.
