I am a computer programmer, who has some knowledge of c/c++, c#, php, currently learning java and delphi

Now I plan on getting into the job market soon, how much do you think should be the basic salary I should aim, and where do you fellows think I should look into (location wise)

My guy, like d poster above me said, it depends on how u package urself and what u can do(or have done in d past). But an average developer earns abt 70-90k monthly for a start, that's why many prefer to remain on d street n do their hustling and freelance by themselves.

Likewise I saw that u listed abt 5 different languages, always try to master at leeast one, such that u can create a meaningful project with it, knowing more than 1 language w/o being able to do something meaningful might not really help u in an environment like ours.

Very true, I can program really well in many languages covering web, softwares and mobile apps to various degrees of proficiency, but when asked where i truly specialize in, i just say PHP / JAVAScript specialist (na those 2 sure for me pass).

I believe that you need to actually be a master in one of this language for an employer to actually take you seriously. Then i believe that you can charge something around 1000USD
