Salary counseling

How much I should ask for a summer job or for a first job after graduation?

We recommend that you update your membership to Black level when starting paid work placement, summer job or other paid job during your studies. The Black level membership includes the membership of the Unemployment fund for highly educated KOKO which provides insurance in case you become unemployed. You have to be currently employed in order to be able to join the fund.
