I received a job offer of net salary around 2400 euro (28500 SEK) I'm not europe and I will have to relocate to gothenburg, is this a fair salary I feel it low

Gross salary is 38000 SEK

What is the amount of salary I should ask for if I'm going to negotiate

I'm a mechatronics engineer - working in embedded systems department for automotive companies

Net salary isn’t usually used when describing your salary. That being said, 28k net is what, 40-42k gross maybe? That’s pretty good for a junior engineering job. The salary growth year over year is usually quite good for juniors too.

Gross is around 38000 SEK, and it wasn't mentioned the salary growth. What is the average percentage of salary increase in sweden ?

Vastly different depending on the field you work in, and how long you've worked there. In engineering, salary growth y/y is usually larger in the first few years for juniors, before stagnating a bit. If you do your job well, I think you can expect maybe 8-12% increase the first year or two. After that, the big salary jumps come from switching employer

Sometimes it is used when on international assignments. I have plenty of clients that are on net contracts and the gross does not matter to them at all.
