REMUNERATION ASPECTS • At this phase, when you are into an entry-level and simply a fresher without having any professional exposure, it’s really not suitable for you to ask too much questions about salary and other related benefits or perks. • Take the quote first what interviewer is offering and then take time to decide and revert back to them.
