What's the average wage for a web developer in Cork?

I'm an immigrant, working with PHP/MySQL, jQuery and HTML5.

mmm I think it really depends on how much work they want done.. €500 rings a bell but I am not one just going by what I heard

Entirely dependent on your experience. For a graduate...20k and up probably. 10 years experience...who knows...anywhere from 60K and upwards maybe. Depends on the company also so average may not mean much when you get an offer.

500 a day would be for a very experienced person I imagine though...particularly for the technologies you mentioned.

You may get a better answer over here in the development forum: http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?f=25

No difference between Dublin and Cork in fairness though as I found out when moving back to Cork from there.

Thanks Ludo. I was thinking about 2500EUR/month for 10+ years experience.

I'll ask on the other forum, too.

Try doing searches on IrishJobs.ie with different keywords.
Some jobs state 'negotiable' for salary but others do give a range.
Here's some results:

From my own personal experience, there's very little call for your particular skills in companies (from time to time, PHP comes up as a very short term contract), although I myself am a PHP/mySQL head aswell, which work well for contracting on websites from time to time. If you can learn .net, MVC, etc, you'll be away.

That's 30k a year, with 10+ years of exp, you should really be getting more than that, unless you were talking about 2500 after tax.
