Romanians are among Europeans with the lowest salaries and a low standard of living, but that does not mean that there are no nationals who are paid. And for this there must be no footballers, politicians or movie stars.

A young Romanian wanted to find out on the Reddit platform that would be the best paid jobs and how to reach them. “What jobs are 8,000 euros per month or more?”, It was the title of the comment, and under it he posted the following lines: “I am curious, if I were to refurbish how I would reach the title in the title? Have you heard of such salaries? Or even better if you personally know people who earn so much. I can start.
The posting caused a real debate among the Internet users, and many of them came up with some interesting ideas. And if some of them even doubt that there were such jobs, others came with their own examples or those of relatives or close relatives and testified that Romanians can have access to jobs even higher than that. And this without being directors of banks, footballers or celebrities.
Salary tailor -made at NATO
“For example you can opt for a job at European institutions. Depending on the experience, the family situation and the type of job you reach over 8,000 euros a month. Do your profile on EPSO and support all tests. You will enter a reserve list/ talent pool and the European institutions first will look for there, after public ads. More details here: https://eu-careers.europa.eu/ro. You can also search at NATO, they have many open positions and some even interesting. https://www.nato.int/cps/en/natohq/retohit-wide.htm ”someone wrote.
It was immediately contradicted by another internet. “It is not so. 8,000 only in the upper gradations after 15+ experience. At most entry levels you take 3-4 k. If you already have experience and experience and apply on an environment, you take 4-5k. Although you do not have taxes to local governments, you pay pension, solidarity tax and still a tax on the European institution. impossible”, The reply came.
“Pure and cruel truth that there is only luck”
“It’s a very difficult question to answer because most people live in a bubble of people with the same income, and people with such WAGES I do not generally tend to lose time on Reddit or to disclose as they do because they are taken to cool”, Wrote another.
Another Internet user appreciated and praised the comment. “One of the best comments I have seen, I mean the side of the bubble of people with the same income. Same, I work Remote as dev for a US company, about 7,300 gross euros, 4 years half experience. Unfortunately I did not necessarily have tips to get in positions like that, I was fortunate to meet the right people at the right time and I came naturally in this position, it was not just Skill ”he confessed.
“There is no trick, Catch, a scheme to find a job. Pure and the cruel truth that it is just luck. I was lucky enough to take a ridiculous contract in the pandemic with a UK company. Contract, I have changed 4 so far. someone else has reinforced.
“I work remote through SRL in IT for a company in England, 6 years experience. I have many friends and acquaintances that do the same, some for the US, others Ireland, these countries. Probably the best paid does 11,000/month, and the worst 6,000.”Someone said.
Like Romanian Directors from State
There were no irony missing either. “Director of CFR … 11,000 euros”Someone wrote. “RATB director – 12,000”, another continued. “FCSB footballer”, “Video chat” and “MEP ”, There were just a few of the many ironic replicas.
Others have expressed doubt that it is possible for a simple man to find such a well-paid job.
“To have this money at a job like employed, you have to be at least extraordinary and exceptional at the same time in Europe / Asia / Africa / South America. In North America and maybe Canada gets to them and if you fail a conscientious pleb. I think the chances of becoming a millionaire Selfmade. Tirist, the simplest path to reach 8k monthly ”, It was another comment.
Obviously, others see this quite differently. “8k+salaries, at least in London, are quite common. Yes, you must have background, nobody gives you this money, but it is not necessarily as a great director, etc. this money can be taken and even more (without having 2 jobs)”, It was another opinion.
What ideas do the Romanians have
“I have some friends who work through a French company in the UK in higher risk constructions (central nuclear construction) and have a stable salary of 6K+ now after a few years. I just speak English and no experience, they work iron. With extra hours and at night they reach 10k”Someone wrote.
“Navigator. But you need about 10 years to get to that salary. But Keep in Mind, when I was a student (2014-2016) over there, the cadet went into practice made 500 euros then“Said another.
“I have colleagues with 2-3 years experience and have 6,000-7,000, they work on engines”, Someone answered.
“I worked as Shadow Author for several US individuals. I was doing 38,000 lei/month.”someone else wrote.
“It depends on if you want 8K 8K a month. In IT sales I had even more, but not constant. Most of that I had 16K in a month. But other months … Hard. However, even if you refurbish on sales, you will go 1 year or maximum. After that you will increase KIPS and sales goals and the employer is assured that you will not be too high.”he wrote another.
“Pilot, or you do a few thousand less if you are” mechanical “of planes (freelancer contract),, There was another comment.
“I know more programmers who have on B2B 2-3 customers in parallel and do over 8k cumulative. One of them even has studies at the Faculty of Geography, has re-profiled and learned a lot, and now at 28 years old he does this sum. But on CIM, I do not know someone personally to make 8K net.”Someone wrote.
“Germany doctor, Austria, Belgium, the Netherlands, Switzerland, etc. in France told me a lady from recruitment that Dermato/Sigha has recently placed private (in the state have low salaries) with over 20k euros. In the US they have obscene salaries,” There was another idea.
“I reached almost 8k a month as an architect software, but it was the kind of job I had no life, I resisted a year and something until I said”someone wrote.
“I personally know someone who earns over 10k/month, but had PFA and was looking for contracts alone until I was taken and engaged as the whole man. The man is a programmer and is very well prepared. In a company rarely reaches these salaries and only for the extraordinarily good functions. Most who earn amounts of these are paid in black.”, There was another opinion.
Much money on ships and oil industry
“On Vessel, preferably something in the oil industry. Launch launch in the sea/ocean, marine navigation, etc., but you leave from 50 days up with 28 at home. You can still look for the oil industry, regardless of the department of services as a contractor, employee as the project would be said.” It was another suggestion.
“I know notaries who make 10k lightweight and a lawyer who does 7-8k, but to reach these amounts for many years, he worked enormously until he got to work on the highest and respected company in Romania. It is not a realistic salary, it is not easy to obtain, no one guarantees you to work.”someone pointed out.
“Director program on the cruise ship on the river, 500 euros per day, 4 weeks with 4 weeks. Including Budapest-Bucharest cruise, so you should not go far. Switzerland, American tourists, predominant”, Wrote another. “I am a navigator, junior officer, 27 years old. For this position you take 3-5 thousand dollars a month, depending on the type of ship. For senior officer the salaries start from 7 thousand to 22 thousand, but also depending on the ship. My tip is an electrician in Constanța, you go to the ship and to the water.”there was another advice.
“B2B programmer for the client in Europe. 65eur/h, you arrive gross 11k. Take the state about 2K and from the year it will take another 2K, that I go to profit. I close it, I do not beat my head, I return to the corporation and I take a year for Burnout”someone else wrote.
“The programming can be easily reached at this amount if you work for a company that gives you stock compensation (and consider it in calculation). I personally are manager in the field 35+ years and I earn more than 8k net a month, in Romania. But I do not want to talk about myself. I give you an example of a senior software Developer, with experience. We divide 250/48 = 5.208.he wrote another.
