Remember the following advice to help you land a decent salary:

This topics may be helpful for fresh graduate as well as experienced guys, when ever you are going for interview then remember the below tips:

 1. Negotiate:  Many fresh grads are grateful for even being offered a job but don’t be afraid to negotiate your salary. Only do so if you feel you truly deserve a more substantial offer.

2. Remember you’re needed:  Learn as much as you can about the company that’s offering you the job. You may realize they need you more than you need them, so don’t settle for less than you’re worth.

3. Reframe the contract:  If you feel it’s too early to ask for a higher salary, determine an evaluation period after which you can request a raise from your employer. Set the terms of the evaluation before you sign the contract.

4. Compare: Do some research to learn more about how much a fresh grad with your qualifications earns in your industry and in your city.

5. Give yourself some credit: Going into an interview can be nerve-wrecking but don’t let that take away from your confidence. Be reasonable but don’t let the “money” discussion intimidate you.

6. Find loopholes: Read your contract and company policies very carefully. You never know where you can find windows of opportunity that can earn you bonuses or commission.


7. Surprise them: Things on paper are static so be sure to highlight your biggest achievements during the interview; show your employers what you’re really worth and what you’re capable of.

8. Shop around: Notify your potential employer that you need a few days to think about the offer so you can follow up with other companies to which you’ve applied. Then you can make a more informed decision.

9. Learn from experience: Your parents, older siblings or professors have a world of experience and can help you decide whether or not your job offer is fair and they can guide you on how to respond.

10. Set a target: Set a promotion goal map for the next 3 years of your career that marks how much you would like to earn by the end of each year. Keep these numbers realistic and relevant so you can achieve them.

If you follow above tips then surely you will get a decent salary.
You must be focus your goals, target and belief your self.
