Hello guys, just want to ask, is 60,000 AUD annual salary a reasonable salary in Sydney?

Mga dre at sis, reasonable na siguro to? Tinaasan ng 5k, bali 65,000 AUD na on top pa ang super. Yong work is 3 times a week work from home, at yong pagpunta sa office depende daw sa need kung kailangan pumasok onsite. My 7 years of experience sana ako pero ayon entry level lang yong position na open, yong nakalagay din sa job posting one year experience lang ang required. Iniisip ko rin wala pa akong Australian experience, at yong flexibility, kung ano oras ka mag in, count kalang ng 8 hours para mag clock out, at may time pwede maghanap ng 2nd job or weekend job.
hi po, what type of visa is being offered for you, if you do not mind me asking?
all the best!
God Bless!

Hello po, thank you. I'm on visa 190. Bali mag 2 months na rin ako nag aapply. Medyo challenging din yong pag apply lalo na pag walang local experience. Yong tumanggap sakin is related sa most recent experience ko sa pinas pero entry level. Thankful din kasi mukhang mababait mga boss.

Hello! Tama ba na 3x a week lang ang work? tapos WFH? then $65k + super? I think it's not that bad. Though I am not sure what's the role and everything.

IMO, since 2 months ka na naghahanap ng work and eto 'yung dumating for now, it's not a bad idea to take it. And while kumukuha ka na rin ng experience at the same time, then actively apply pa rin to find the job that you really want. Good luck!

Thank you po. Bali work from home 3x a week, pero onsite 2x week, ito naman daw depende sa need kadalasan daw sa kanila nag eexceed ng more than 3x yong WFH. Yong manager once a month lang pumapasok onsite kadalasan work from home. 5 days pa rin yong pasok all in all. ERP management/materials management nag mamaintain ng master data yong work. Mahirap talaga yong job hunting kabilaan yong rejections sa seek and indeed. Iniisip ko nalang makakabayad na ko ng accommodation kahit papano dito at yong work naman parang magaan lang hybrid pa yong setup so tipid sa pamasahe. Hopefully magaan di yong mga katrabaho at yong experience.

Ahhh I see. Yup isipin mo na lang na at least nakapag-start ka na sa work journey mo dito sa AU. Since sabi mo na medyo maluwag 'yung work, then baka nga may chance ka pa makahanap ng 2nd work. Kaya 'yan!

i see... normal na po ata yung ganun na sweldo, i've even heard of 55k being offered here @ QLD for starters, pwede ka pa din mag-apply while you are getting your "local experience", until such a time you have enough experience to demand more, or also try to upskill yourself para mas madaling ibenta ang sarili sa employers 😉 $31.25 ka na nyan per hour, which is above their average here in AU.

Electronics and Communications Engineering yong course ko pero yong experience ko is more sa Research and Development, supply chain at product data management. Sa Pinas sa product engineering ako na assigned pero ERP management ng mga parts, pati yong Bill of materials, product data management , yon na rin yong naging focus areas ko sa pag apply dito sa Sydney. Pansin ko lang dito sobrang specific talaga nila sa skills, dapat yong applicant sobrang close yong experience at skills sa hinahanap nila.

Better than nothing yung 65k pang survive, and given na experienced ka na din naman. Yung super naman kasi, personally hindi ko na sinasama sa computation kasi sa net ako nakabase lagi when considering the offer. Pwede na pang experience din, pero sana makahanap ka pa ng better job offer. Maliit yang offer talaga.

Oo, pero mukhang di ko na afford magpaka choosy for now, tiningnan ko nalang yong pros.. specially yong hybrid setup, or possible maghanap ng second job. Admittedly maliit sya, pero for survival pwede na rin kaysa wala. At least in line pa rin sya sa previous experience ko so maybe upskill nalang siguro pero next job pwede na mag expect ng malaki. Good for you nakahanap ka ng high paying agad sa first entry mo, kadalasan kasi hindi at hindi pa related yong jobs na napasukan sa experience sa Pinas.

May kakikilala din ako na 45k daw yong starting nila. Ako naman solo so fight na siguro to. Accommodation kasi talaga yong malaki dito at siguro nakakarelate yong mga on the same boat na searching pa at andito na sa Au, swerte din yong iba prepared financially enough na pwede sila mag wait ng ilang buwan for the best job and offer.

Same tayo 65k annual, yang computation na yan ay BEFORE tax kaya liliit pa yan.

congratulations sa lahat ng may work, and more prayers po sa mga naghahanap pa ng work... it is truly a blessing to be able to work and provide for the family, the best thing for me working here in AU na PR na is i do have that peace of mind na kaya kong maghanap ng ibang work and di ako matatakot dahil meron na ako local experience that they are always looking for, if ever i try moving up the ladder, or kahit lateral lang 😉

normally ang increase sa mga companies is 2-4% per annum, if stated on the contract, now pag mas malaki dyan ang increase yearly, that is a really good company! 🙂 so normally, after 1-3 years in a company, people will tend to leave na, kasi we can demand 10% and more from new companies we are moving to 🙂 just my opinion po 😉

all the best!

God Bless!
