Hi all!
I am from Argentina, living in Italy and hopefully moving soon to Norway. In that sense, I would really appreciate it if you could help me to understand which could be a good salary offer, as the job is in the Arctic area of Norway, performed under unfavorable conditions (let´s say outside, and in the countryside, 2 hours away from the closest city), for an engineer with an MBA with more or less 5 years of experience.

Thank you a lot!
Paula

Hi Paula

The salary market has sunk in Norway; The good times, when a BA/MBA/MSc could get over a million NOK to perform a simple job are gone.
However, depending on the industry where you are going to work the salaries varies greatly.
For an engineer with 5-10 years experience holding a Msc..the salary might between 600 000-750 000 NOK per year
Good luck
