Salary depends on what you are doing, and where you are.

I work in IT and doubled my salary by moving from New Mexico to Seattle.

Your education and grades can make a big difference, as can the company you work for. When I started out I had a physics degree and the company didn't know where to put my on the pay scale so they put me with the electrical engineers, I was doing programing and making 25% more than the programmers with Computer Science Degrees ...

Companies will always try to low ball you. Or they will offer a reasonable salary and then _change_ the job. I went through a long interview process where the recruiter was very clear about what the maximum salary they were going to pay was, and by the time I got around to interviewing with the Vice President, well gosh they wanted a lot more from the person in that postion, and ...

For a beginer you can look at what is fair market. One effect I have found is that in communities with a large Military presence, there will be a lot of retired military people who already have an income and will work for next to nothing, meaning less than you need to survive. Here in the Pacific Northwest, Bremerton and Tacoma have Military bases and Military Hospitals, and surprise Low salaries. Moving to Seattle to work can double the pay for the same job. ...

You need to find out what fair market is for the work you want to do. Be aware of the bait and switch. Microsoft tried that on me this time around, hire me at a low salary as a "support" person and then start dumping software engineering tasks on my plate, and sometimes I do them, sometimes I write an email and suggeest that they need to hire a software engineer to do the work ...

Really you need to know where you are, and what kind of work you are doing to know what is reasonable.

Maybe you should go to graduate school, come to Microsoft work for 3 months on an Internship, and then move to Redmond after you have a Masters degree and make the big bucks.

Or you could do Linux development for free .. (which is really the only thing wrong with open source.)

As a fresh graduate you are getting $ 8.37 per hour after the Insurance charges,Social security Charges and Tax $ 67 per day is not a lower salary cause you are appointed as an new recruit as well as on probation + just like an internship. Learn to understand,take the experience of the job and work and motivate others.When you are conformed in the job you will be eligible for a Minimum of $ 28000 per annum.When you develop a skill, you need to do your research for higher salary job.

I really do not understand 67$. $67. a week , a day , or a year? As a beginner in the working world, sometimes salary is not the only thing to be concerned with. You can learn alot by just being employed.

a person working 40 hours a week in a burger joint will bring home between 600 -800 dollars a month after taxes .. so yea 67 is quite low unless your just baby sitting on a few occasions a month

Well if it is $67 a year, that is a little low.

If it is $67 an hour, it is high.

Now what is the job?

You probably mean 67K a year? This may be high or low, depending on what kind of job it is, and what your education level is. You just said "fresh graduate", but for all we know, you could have meant 8th grade graduate. You gotta tell us some more info....
