24 year old moving to Delhi
Hi All,
I need some advice regarding my move to India. I am 24 yrs old and am working in UK. I did my undergrad and postgrad from Scotland in Engineering and have 3 years of work experience. I've got an offer for 9 lakhs in Delhi with the same MNC I work for now and its for a Senior software engineer position. Is that a good package for someone of my profile? Am I right in estimating that average monthly expense for one person(me) would be around Rs.25000(house+food etc). |

Just out of interest.
Was that a salary of 9 lakhs per month? I'm looking to get a job in India, but it seems my particular sector of teaching is notoriously underpaid!! The best offer so far was 15,000 rupees per month What other fields of work could I get into do you think? Steve |

@Steve
You should try applying at the international schools in India, they're supposedly well-paid. Other high-paying jobs in big Indian cities require a high qualification and/or a good experience in the relevant field.
