It is a quite
smooth interview session, discussing about job scope and all.
Nervous,
frankly speaking, yes I did. Well, who doesn’t? 😅
So as the
session went, we came to the topic that kinda important as well, even though
most of my reading recommended to not touch about this issue, or slightly ask
only, which is “Expected Salary”.
Ahha.
But, I tell
you, I am not the first one who touch this issue. The interviewer did. Hahaha.
So he started;
Interviewer:
“What is your expected salary?”
Me: “Salary
that equivalent with my qualification and experience”.
Oh ya, to
add, me myself who look like Secondary school kid come to the office looking
for my mom has been working for one year and a month now. Believe it or not?
Hahaha. 😂
Cont…
Interviewer:
“What is the maximum salary you expect?”
Me: “RM2,***”
Interviewer:
“Okay, what is the lowest you can go?”
Me: “RM2,100”
Interviewer:
“How much you gain now?”
Me: “RM1,***”
Interviewer:
“So, from your lowest expected, any lower than that?”
Me: “Not
lower that my current salary. Hehehe”
Interviewer:
“So you are leaving with your parents, working area is nearby, and I believe
your journey is not that expensive. And yet, you still single. Except if you
are married and have 2-3 kids, it can be consider. Your car how much per month?
Other expenses? So from your current salary now, you have around RM800 more.
Lebih”
Me: “…”
Wow wow
wow. Hold on for a second sir.
First of
all, kereta aku tak pakai minyak meh? Harga minyak dah la turun naik tiap
minggu. Duit minyak dgn toll belum kira lagi. RM800 tolak duit minyak tinggal
berapa kerat? Habis tu aku tak da saving ke? Semua aku makan perabis ke? The
way he talked just now, like he just immigrated to Malaysia. Haiyo, I feel like
want to knock on your head. Hahahaha.
You know
what, this is the first time I encounter with such interviewer. My previous experience
with job interview session did not touch seriously on salary issue. Yang hini,
eh siap tolong kirakan balance gaji.
And the
funniest part is, I cannot voice out. Nothing come out from my mouth. Haiya
So now, I do
not know whether to accept the offer or not. Deep in my heart ask me to reject
the offer. But, my second interview session during lunch hour just now, I said
yes. Hahahaha
But, my “Restu”
(Ibu Ayah) said, reject the offer. 😖
