79% Informative

Nearly three quarters of graduates earn less than 29,120 — the average salary of those aged 22 to 29 — more than 15 months after leaving university.

“In the UK maybe the starting salaries are around $80,000 ( 61,000 ), the highest paid ones in tech firms,” he said. “In the US , $ 153,000 is entry level and you would have a stock bonus on top of that of maybe $ 37,000 .
