I applied as an Architect. I am a licensed architect here in the the Philippines. And I'm earning 800usd basic salary in a construction company. I tried to negotiate may salary but they said they only give me 1,200usd for my salary including meal and the rest is provided by them.

kasi daw it is my first time they want to know my capabilities.

What is the position offered to you, a draftsman or an architect? what they offered to you is a salary for a first timer draftsman. I suggest you to try to negotiate for more.

Kabayan the offer is not good enough but it will depend on you. Though you are first timer but you have already a 6 yrs exp., your salary range dapat between QR 6000 to 7000 ang basic salary mo, excluding food, housing, transportation, allowances. Mahal dito ang food unlike sa other ME countries.
