💰 Salary Analysis

They say “Competitive” but no range given.

In Malaysia market (approximate):

  • Mid-level dev: MYR 4,000–8,000/month
    (~₹70K–₹1.4L approx, depends heavily on company)

If they’re hiring offshore remotely:

  • Could be lower than Malaysia local market.

You must ask:

  1. Salary range?
  2. Currency (MYR or USD)?
  3. Contractor or payroll?
  4. Tax structure?

🧠 Who Should Apply

Apply if:

  • You have 2+ years real experience
  • Comfortable in Full Stack
  • Good English communication
  • Comfortable with 40 hours/week remote job

Avoid if:

  • You only know basic HTML/CSS
  • You don’t have backend experience
  • You prefer freelance flexibility

🚨 Subtle Red Flag

“The Elite Job” sounds more like:

  • A recruitment portal name
  • Not necessarily a product company

Before applying:

  • Check official website
  • Verify LinkedIn presence
  • Avoid sharing sensitive documents early
