I still remember my first real job after all my training. 4 years college. 4 years of medical school. 4 years of surgical residency. 1 year of surgical fellowship.
Salaries were predetermined according to your post-graduate level for residency and fellowship. But, my first job - that was the first time I was given an offer letter. I had no clue what to do with it. My brother urged me negotiate the salary, but I wasn't sure how.
