Hi there my amigos. I just got an offert to work in the USA doing the same I do here in Mexico, and I am confused about how much money should I ask for. Could you help me, please. This is my current info:
>mexico
>telecomm engineer
>5 years experience
>4.50 USD/hour
Google what people earn on average in your profession in the US, subtract 3% for being a beaner.
Lo que yo he encontrado es que lo que ganas mensual, en tu caso 20,000 pesos al mes es el salario que puedes pedir anual en dólares +20% o sea pedir unos 25,000 USD anuales como mínimo

Make sure you get tour work visa now before Trump makes it harder.

The thing my friend, is that in the US even a mcdonald's teenager makes more than me. Should I ask for 20 USD/hour or is too much for a beaner?

>4.50 USD/hour
you make more than twice that panhandling.

You win dollars, but you also spend dollars. You may earn three or fourth times what you earn here, but you also spend two or three times more on basic groceries (just a figure of speech, in case some retard is missing the point), so you don't have to compare the salary between countries, but to the internal market.
Basically, this anon is right: >>1305341 get an idea how much people with similar skills to yours earn, subtract a bit (because they are expecting a mexican to work for cheaper than a gringo, and do it actually better), and there you go.
Also, try to check out some of the living cost comparatives to know how much money do you actually need. By example, $25k sounds good as mexican, but that's $2084 per month, or $68 per day. That's like $8.6 per hour, which is a dollar above the minimal wage, and if you have heard the news, there's a lot of protests because the minimal wage is not enough to have a decent life in plenty of cities.
TL,DR: google for similar job offers, get the average and ask a bit less, but not below the living costs of the city where you're going to move in; these living costs should also include some savings.
Depends on where you will be living, the cost of living there.
I would say $15hr to $20hr

I get it, the living cost would be higher in the US. Sadly, when I was asked for my expected salary the employer want me to give him the number in mexican pesos, so, stupid as I am, I give him the salary I expected for the job "doing it in mexico", not in the USA. I told him the equivalent of 8.9 USD/hour. I think I was tricked. Am I screwed?

Thank you very much, amigo. I'll do my best to poo only in designated streets.
No idea about US, but in Aus as a telecom engineer with 3 years experience I make $38/hr
