How much salary can I ask?

Question

I am called up for the final interview with Maersk (CPH). I was wondering if anyone can give me a rough salary range that I can ask? I have a degree in engineering and about 4 years of experience in programming and last 4 years in business systems analysis (total 8).

Any one here to help me out?

Answer 2

Don't negotiate salary until you've got the offer!  They might offer you the position, but you don't accept unless the salary is worthwhile to you.  Keep in mind that your health insurance is obligatory in Denmark, meaning it will automatically be included in whatever compensation package you agree upon... so don't consider that (much) in the negotiation.  Have a good look at housing and commuting costs, and consider overall costs of living--including DK income tax--as well as what you're worth.  Don't ask more than typical range for your position unless you can prove your worth by your performance with them.
