Another question, this equates to a lot of GBP, am i able to send this back? does it converse? (does that make sense? )
Offered a job paying 122,000 swiss francs, is this a decent salary?
Stand back everybody, move on, nothing to see here. On your way please, move aside.
The message is too bloody short
sorry for the newb questions, nobody seems to be able help - i thought people in Switzerland may be able to offer advice.
I've tried google.. Not very helpful.
Use the Search function on this Forum - there is a mine of information to be found and I am sure that you will find your answer!
Maybe you should have tried to search EF not Google....
Here could be a good place to start...
Thank you all for the smarmy, and helpful replies
... if you move over don't forget to bring us some brown sugar.
I'll pack some HP sauce as well, i appreciate i asked a very vague question!
There's probably a bit of tongue-in-cheek ribbing, because, even by Swiss standards, the salary is pretty good (can't speak for Zurich, but for practically all other parts of CH - in region of 1 1/2 x "average").
Regarding 2nd part of your Q. -- the responses from the established forum members about searching the forum is probably valid, as you wont be the first to make such enquiries - that's probably the best advice you can expect initially. Once you can report back with distinct questions relating to some of your findings, more help/advice may be forthcoming.
I'm also quite new to this forum (but not to CH) and there appears to be a definite way of playing the game - many new posters seem to demand information for nothing and no personal endeavour - which is sometimes met with the appearance of non-cooperative responses.
Don't worry, this forum is full of smarmy smart-arses.
And some quite helpful ones too.
I would probably place my self in the 1st category.
Whilst comparing the offer dosh with UK cash equivalent, bear in mind that you'll also have to make a judgement call regarding the exchange rate if you will have continuing financial commitments in the UK.
Not really no
I would say 122K is quite a good salary, as it is in fact 2000CHF higher than the 120K that everyone else seems to be getting offers left and right for . 2000CHF will buy you a lot of dishwasher tablets in Zürich.
Then again, one can't be too careful playing around with this whole "search function" business. After all, we've never heard another peep from most of these people after they got their question answered: for all you know or I know, they may have accepted offers of 120K and be STARVING in the STREETS right now. So we wouldn't want to search the forum and read up on their questions and the answers offered, no indeedy.
Eww. 122K? My butler's driver's butler earns more than that.
It's because talking about wages in Switzerland is a nono.. we certainly don't brag about it in public
Hard to say if its a good salary or not, what will the job title be? Please share some more info so we can help you.
Yeah, but considering the 'extras' you ask for, even that's not such a good deal.
I really wish you wouldn't sneer at people who earn less than you.
Hope it's not an IT job....
Maybe you'll have some peasants to do your internet searchs for you! That would be cool.
