"What's your expected salary?" "PHP 35k" "ARE YOU JOKING?!" 💀 Speechless na lang ako. Tinawanan talaga ako sa mukha! Fresh grad daw ako kaya 20k lang daw ang budget nila for me. Nakaka-demoralize at sobrang nakaka-insulto. Normal pa ba tong lowballing na to sa market ngayon? Nangyari na rin ba sa inyo to?

Company reveal na para maiwasan? Haha. Mukhang old-school HR yan ah, sila pa madalas pinaka-kuripot pag usapang salary, parang sariling bulsa nila yung pinanggagalingan 😂

IT Head
welcome to pelepens, 30k and above is for managerial role na dito that requires 5 years of experience napaka lowball talaga at justified naman pag dedemand mo kung may skills ka na worth it nun pero swertihan din makahanap ng company willing mag offer ng malaki for entry levels dito

20k is ok for entry level pero in this economy and crisis ngayon kulang narin 20k actually even 30k is kulang narin 😔 and tip lang is go for industries/companies na align sa skills mo para afford nila skills & experience mo kahit freshgrad ka pa

Executive Assistant
You’re not alone ate. I’ve experienced that too. They said my salary expectation was already at a manager level, and that executive assistant or admin roles typically offer less than what I’m asking. However, that was my previous salary, and I left that role due to a toxic work environment. They also mentioned they’re hiring multiple candidates, and if there’s no update by Friday, it means they’ve moved forward with another candidate.
