How to calculate your expected salary.
YOE * 3 = Expected salary
Like: 4 year experience * 3 = 12LPA
In Indian IT...
3x average 5x very good 7x superb
People are earnings 10x, so 10x and more will be in super category. I’m earning 7x and I consider my self in good category not very good at all. Industry changing pay is also changing it’s just that you need to upgrade your skills to get better pay. Also depends on the city you are working
This multiplier is mostly applicable from 5 yr onwards.
Fresher joining at 20LPA will not be earning 1Cr after 5 YOE.
IMO If you fit the above criteria and are still worried then you may be greedy 😊..
Skills > experience
What do you bring to the table? Nobody cares how old of a slave you are.
Yoe × 2
If you can code ask for 4-5 * exp for first switch
Companies have a good budget for a good candidate.
