Hi all.

I got a job offer in Bahrain as an accountant. They are offering 600BHD inclusive of rental and and transportation.

Is that salary fair? (I have 3 years of relevant work experience in srilanka)
Is that salary enough to live and save?

Need all the advice I can get

Many thanks

You need to work out with your situation, you can check what will be cost of living for you in here and what will you be saving...........What is your income at your current place and what are your obligations, what is average conversion of bahraini dinar to your currency, all that matters, and most important, your lifestyle, your dependents etc.

Not sure how you are searching but here is one discussion; I remember many others:

The salary is about right for junior levels. It is ok for a single person to live on but don't expect to have a lavish lifestyle.
