How much am I worth?

    I have an informal job interview tomorrow and I'm wondering what kind of salary I should be expecting.
    I have tried to find similar jobs advertised and see what they are paying but this is quite a specialised area and there are no jobs advertised anywhere.
    Nor are there any reliable estimates available online.

    I will be graduating right before I start this job(if I get it). I have done two summer internships directly related to this line of work ( I was actually pretty much doing the job I am going for) and I have also held a part time job for the past two years which is in the same industry. I also have a FETAC level 5 in this area from about 4 years ago.
    To make matters more complicated the job is in the UK so I'm not sure what a good wage is here.

    Any help at all? I seem to be going in blind on this one!
    Thanks

    You will need to give us a bit more specific information on the job to be honest to give you any help.

    I know this isn't universally accepted advice, but I'd wait to get the job offer before bringing up salary (unless asked and you cannot avoid it) - you're in a better position to negotiate then.
