    Hi Guys,
    Im going to be finished my C# Software Development honors degree in june and was wondering what would be a suitable salary to look out for.
    I am going for an ASP.NET development position.
    I am going to hopefully be working in Galway also.
    Thanks,

    yes

    Did you find anything?

    Might also be worth you digging out a few of the salary surveys, a few of the larger agencies publish them every year.

    I'm guessing a graduate with ASP.NET could seek in around €30k to €35k per year plus additional benefits.

    Assuming a graduate role in Galway, my friends who went into .Net development started between €25000 - €30000. Usually any benefits (health insurance, pension) would kick in after the probation period is over.

    From this, http://www.morganmckinley.ie/article/it-2015-salary-survey-benefits-guide , you are looking at between 25k and 38k

    I'd say you would be looking at 25k-30k in Galway.
