sariz Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 Hello I need to find an assistant speaking english well for around 10 000 baht per month, is there any website to find an employe in Bangkok or anything like that? If not what is the way to find an employe in bangkok, thanks you very much for your help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CWMcMurray Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 I hate to burst your bubble, but you may want to re-thin that salary number if you want to find some one who is any good. You realize that the min wage for unskilled labor is going to be almost 9,000 thb per month in Bangkok starting 1 Jan. So 10k per month for some one with a Degree and good English skills, which means they likely studied overseas or attended an international program in Thailand or has been working with a MNC or export based business for quite some time, is not likely to attract many takers. For a good English speaking assistant to GM or MD, a more realistic salary would be in the 30-40k range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bkkjames Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 Have you tried google+website+jobs, not hard, 88db, jobsdb, etc etc. Maybe when you hire your assistant she can do it for you lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sariz Posted October 10, 2011 Author Share Posted October 10, 2011 12k and I give you the job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SunDaRi Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 (edited) 12k and I give you the job unless you are a company, paying tax to the assistant etc. 12k is not realistic at all especially if you want him to speak good english but my recommendation is: should be at least 15k, office hours (only) over time to be paid too if your assistant is required to be outdoor a-lot, unless the job allows the assistant to get tip - you will need to up the pay again. if you don't need the assistant to be clever and is on a budget, find a bar girl. good luck :-) Edited October 10, 2011 by SunDaRi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

falkan Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 look at 15-20k that will give you someone with a degree and can speak ok english! a good one that care about his job 20-25k... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bkkjames Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 You post bad You look dumb With the new minimum wage cap on the cards, your 10k assistant may only be part-time. Not being rude so much as a smart ass: if you are looking for someone to yell at for 10k a month, just hire a security guard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samran Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 12k and I give you the job we pay our maid that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SunDaRi Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 I thought 15k is reasonable for office hours 8am - 5pm job, although 20k is probably what you will end up paying especially if you are doing a business etc. or they will just leave you for better offers. I do agree with the 20 - 25k bracket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dancealot Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 My offer still stands. If you can arrange a WP for me it would be appreciated we could talk more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do agree with the 20 - 25k bracket. !5kmight get you an entry level data entry office worker ... e.g. no real thinking, experience, English skills or decision making needed. But a assistant to MD or Gm or other senior manager needs to be some one with a bit of experience and able to be the eyes, ears and mouth of your company when ever the GM is not in the office or for matters that do not need to be brought directly to senior managements attention. For something like this, it is worth it to pay a decent salary in order to get a well qualified person. Then again, if by assitant you are just looking for some one to pick up your laundry and get you your coffee, then you may not need anyone with any real skills that are able to represent you to your overseas customers in a professional manner without embarrassing you or your company. If that is the case, you maybe able to find some one to take up space for 15 k per month. Edited October 12, 2011 by CWMcMurray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now we are advertising at a university. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
w11guy Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 LOL. You need to pay much more than that. Are you serious about your business or not? If you are I suggest you get real and pay the going rate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
outofoz Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 Go to KFC...You can get two assistants for that price and they are used to taking orders! Take the combo deal and you can get a guy AND a girl, plus pillion on their motorcycle to work! .. not sure about the Engish skills... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
