Researching Market Salary Rates
Ma Hnin Ei works as an admin executive at a construction company in Yangon. She earns 280,000 MMK per month. Her friend, same age, same degree, same job title, earns 450,000 MMK at a logistics MNC near Hlaing Tharyar. When Ma Hnin Ei got her offer two years ago, she accepted within ten minutes because she had no idea what the market paid. She still does not know. Every month, the gap between what she earns and what she could earn grows wider -- not because she lacks talent, but because she never spent thirty minutes researching what her work is actually worth.
