I asked for 4k a month but was shot down by HR who said they can only offer me roughly 3.3k a month because I need to consider 3.3k x 15 months and not 12 months.

Is this normal? Or am I getting lowballed? I’m just worried future employers will take my last drawn salary as 3.3k a month?

Advise please and thanks
