Greetings Seniors,
I'm Vinita from Jaipur, and I recently joined a company as an HR Generalist Executive. I want to know what the starting salary for this post is as a fresher. They are offering only 9k with a 6-month probation and an increment after 1 year. I completed my MBA in HR through correspondence and have only theoretical knowledge of PF, ESI, and payroll. Should I negotiate, or is this the basic salary for a fresher in Jaipur?
Please reply as soon as possible.
Thanks

May I know how we are calculating the market rate for a particular profession?
Dear Vinny,
You have completed an MBA through correspondence, and the job is near your home, or commuting is not an issue. I would suggest you join it at the initial stage, and after gaining some experience, you will receive more opportunities. This time, you should focus on the work or job description.

Dear Vinney,
You are inexperienced but eager to learn. It would be beneficial for you to accept the offered salary, gain experience, and then consider seeking a job with a higher salary once you feel more confident.

Hi Vinney,
You are lucky to have at least 9000 and the designation as a generalist, which will definitely help you in the future. So, my suggestion is not to only think about salary. Due to the recession in companies, I have seen that even experienced personnel accept salaries as low as 10,000, and freshers are not even given a chance for an interview (based on my personal experience). Therefore, learn as quickly as possible. I am confident that in the future, you will receive a good salary. All the best.

Hi Vinney,
You are lucky that you have been given the chance to attend an interview, and now you have been offered 9000, along with the designation as a generalist, which will definitely help you in the future.

Dear Vinny,
As some wise and experienced stalwarts have said, if you are a native of Jaipur and have secured a job, even with the kind of salary, deem yourself fortunate.
Two tips to make little adjustments mentally to enable you to pick the right attitude going forward:
1. Within you, replace the word "salary" and think you are receiving a STIPEND, which is what you are really eligible for coming with just qualifications and hardly any experience. Use the opportunity and get to know as many things as you can in HR.
2. It's good to LEARN before you think about how much you can EARN. It's not only the present job that you should take up and work hard with interest, but also ensure that you are carving a future too. You have to sow the seeds now to reap a great harvest.
Bonus Tips:
You have just arrived. However, do read books, blogs, articles more on the subject or even outside on a daily basis and share your learnings with someone who can appreciate it.
Try to work on your soft skills - reading, writing, speaking, thinking, etc., and keep it going as this is a skill that you need to keep adding all your life to be competitive.
Make it a habit to keep in touch with the happenings on a day-to-day basis around you - in the business environment in which your company works, see how the market is shaping in the country, see what is happening in the leadership of corporates, and also keep a tab on how things are shaping politically. We are entering an age in India that we have never seen before. I suggest you watch the English news Channel debate NDTV, or Times Now, or CBN, or Headlines Today. You will get to know and understand a lot of things, including enhancing your listening skills.
Best wishes for now and your future as well. It'll be nice to see you make appearances in this forum whenever you can.

Vinny,
There are two phases in life: one is learning and then earning. As you mentioned you are a fresher, please proceed with whatever salary you are getting. It's a good profile to learn a lot and then negotiate with another company for the same after a year or two. Good luck.

Dear Vinny,
I am in full agreement with Sh. TSK Raman. We have to deserve and then demand. Some practical experience gathered over a period of actual working will increase the value of your services. I learn that you have a superficial (bookish) knowledge of labor laws. I think you should try to go deeper into the provisions of all the labor-related statutes, and the best way is to read them and simultaneously practice them during your employment. I would extend only one tip here: In the abbreviation HR or HRD, the first word is "Human." Do not forget this aspect.
