Average salary in Rome? Minimum....
Hello all,
VERY long time since I posted here. I have a possible interview coming up for a job based in Rome.
It's been a while since I lived there. If they discuss salary expectations, what is the least I should be looking at these days.
It's a digital/online type role.
Obviously it's not going to be comparable to London, but Rome still is an expensive city.
I know what I would like to ask them for (coming from Ireland), but it would be useful to have a ballpark figure.
Thanks folks.

You need to be thinking that a flat to rent in Rome can be at least 1,000 euro, plus all the bills..............

Re: Average salary in Rome? Minimum....
I read somewhere last night that the average salary in Rome after tax is €1,500. I know it's the internet so you can't believe everything you read, but surely that's way too low for Rome.
I'm just going to ask them how much the role is offering, and take it from there.

That bad??!!
In theory, Rome would be great (to go back), but I need to save some cash... :/

Yep, save LOADS of cash.
I do not know what people get in your line of business, but young sales people get from 600-1,000 per month, a policeman told me he gets 1,000 and my friend who works part time in a school( dinner lady) gets 400 euro per month( out of which around 100 is given to her because she has 2 children under 18).

Job could be up to €35K/year. I would imagine this would go farther in somewhere like Rome than it would in somewhere like London or Manchester...

Surely Rome is more expensive than Manchester?
35k euro a year does not sound a heck of a lot to me to be living in Rome? UNLESS you are thinking about not living in the centre? I have loosely looked at prices there in the past and less than 30k gbp a year does not strike me as a good time in a nice place in the centre.

Re: Average salary in Rome? Minimum....
Well, I wouldn't be living slap bang in the city centre. That's expensive in most cities, not to mind tourist hot spots.
Well, a similar role might offer roughly a similar amount in £ in Manchester.
Last time I lived in Rome, I was only 22, and lived way out in the burbs in Boccea.
I would imagine that a 35K job might allow me to live somewhere a little closer this time.
Areas like Monteverde would be nice, on the tram line and big park nearby too. I am not familiar with north, south or east Rome though. Only from the city centre out west to Cornelia.
This is all assuming I get offered the job!!

Re: Average salary in Rome? Minimum....
I don't think there is one. Only a clause in The constitution saying that a wage must be proportionate to the quantity and quality of the work being done.
I did read somewhere that just over 50% of wages here are set by Employer agreements with the Unions - i.e. collective bargaining.
