Default Salary Expectation for my Profile

Position offered: Financial Analyst (MNC)
Experience: I am a 'fresh grad' with 6 month internship exp in Australia
Education: I have a Masters Degree (NTU, currently maintaining a 'first class' at 4.6/5.0) and a Bach Degree (Australian Uni - graduated top 3 in my cohort, received scholarships etc)

They've asked me for my salary expectations. Can someone give me a rough idea/range on this?

Thanks
PStar

The position is only a financial analyst. How much do you think you can get since obviously you do not have the working experience? If you did, it made no sense to apply for the job when you have a MIF.

thx for your reply.
i received $3k starting, while some of my friends with 2years exp received $7-8k.

Why is there such a huge difference? I was expecting something along the lines of 3.5-4k? Is that too much to ask?

$3.5k - $4k with a huge MNC is definitely reasonable in my opinion. But I highly doubt any financial analyst would be drawing a $7k - $8k salary with only 2 years of working experience... Unless they are also expert users of SAP, Oracle etc. armed with ACCA/CPA qualifications then it might come close to being remotely plausible.
