Salary of Breeder's Assistant

[sonalidu 0]

Hallo, can anyone tell what is the normal salary range for a Plant Breeder's Assistant position? I have an interview and I am sure I am going to face this question.

I have no idea what that even is and to be honest, I don't think we have anyone in that kind of job on TT...

@kapokanadensis - are you able to shed any light on this?

Fancy jobtitle, but I doubt you need like 10 years to become one :).

you’d be surprised, there are PhD’s with that jobtitle. No idea how much one earns here, but I’d guess the average beginners salary for an academic in technical fields, so 55 to 60 thousand a year. Just a wild guess.

This job title is quite specific and it is very easy to find the job I think you are referring to. MIght not be in your best interest, tbh. 

 

I noticed that the requirement is either an Ausbildung plus job experience or a degree in agriculture. From what I know, salaries in the agricultural sector are quite a bit lower than for engineers, for example, so my guess (and this is just a guess!!) would be around 38-45k €. It also depends on the size of the company and if there is a Tarifvertrag.

Experiments on animals??😠

Breeder's assistant is a bit Handmaideny.  The plant bit is reassuring.

No way - lets rather do experiment with humans.

Entry-level salaries for an employed academic in this kinda field (sic) are probably in the region of probably broadly 35,000 +- a couple thousand.
