Job opportunitie in London

ivonne

Hello all,

Probably I will go to London to work, but the company is asking me for my salary expectations, of course this salary has to cover my living expenses. 

I saw in the RIBA website that the hour rate for a Part 1 / First Year Out Students is 10 £.

I have 3 years experience in the sector and  I'm not an UK citizen, neither european. 

London citizens, are you agree with this rate?

First year part ones rates are averaging 19-20k from my experience with 3 years you should be at least 22-24k per year. However it may be difficult geting a job in a smaller friendlier studio as a foreigners so look at places like Fosters, they always hire foreign students who leave after 1-2 years.

What about living costs in London? If I make about 35k year / 3,000 month, how much of this could I save? (moderate expenses with rental,basic food,...)
