Ohh

[@TheFatcake1234]

How?

[@newscooler12316]

I'm hoping to get 10k a year... but the best I've done is only 3k in a year.

[@johnhatzinger141]

1700 a month??? Where are you living

That Asian girl said seventy hundred not seventeen.

O the difference between Art and IT folk. Well we know who just in it for the money 🤑

[@mina2719]

I wish people taught them that even with the degree jobs still will start you off at entry level pay smh and typically entree level is not 70-80 k

[@mohtalk]

For comp sci it definitely is specially in a major metro area

[@mina2719]

@@mohtalk I live in a metro area in the state I’m in and I am not searching for a job that pays what bls.gov is stating but everyone that I talk to is only giving 30-40 k a year for me to start off and I am a newly graduate as a RN…mind you my grades are great as well, the job I have now pays more than that…I’ve had a job interview where he stated that they would have to start me off with that pay because that is what typical entry level makes but they promised to increase the pay later

[@godofnothing428]

@@mina2719 for comp sci if you don’t make 60k min starting, you’re doing it wrong, 100k+ starting if you are in a HCOL area like Silicon Valley

As an art student i relate a LOT to the 2nd girl, don’t know how much i’ll make later when i get paid for doing so but i trust the process! Hopefully doing what i love gets me somewhere ✨ P.S. i’m not a rich person like any other art kids

[@ElsBels25]

How so high starting salaries!? In UK it is not even easy to get a 25-30,000 poind job

[@Im_michi]

I’m from Virginia and know this college . And you can’t live here making 60k it’s just bad. So the best is to study a career that makes more than 70k a year to live fairly better than everyone else here. I’m going into sonography next year and I hope to earn 80k or more which will most likely happen because the percentage rate for sonographers will go up a ton and I’ve seen they’ll be willing to pay 90k a year and give a 4K bonus if you sign up so yuh. I’m a senior in highschool and I just wanted to say this for others who also live in Virginia like me to start thinking of their careers cause 60k a year won’t do much here.

[@amreenaym786]

Ik but for first job it’s good. Plus your pay will go up fast in cs related job that 30k can go up to 300k real quick talking from experience lol

[@Jake-tl6hj]

I'm from Australia and don't know this college. You can easily live here without working because we have the dole. So the best thing to do here is get a high value trade, particularly a dual trade. I finish my apprenticeship next year. Entry level is roughly 140k AUD, however, with skill shortages that is plenty of opportunity for overtime. My tradesmen all made over 200kaud. last year on apprentice wages I was able to make $100k AUD. I just wanted to say this for others because this type of physical labor both grows you mentally and physically. Allows you to work on your own property legally and others. Has plenty of room to grow career wise and gets you earning money straight out of school and not accrue any debt which leaves more saving for investing.

[@seasonsoflove9507]

well they’re just talking about entry level salary, it will definitely go up the longer they stay/have more job experience

[@currentlywaiting1081]

1700 a month? Are you kidding me?? What can you do with 1700 a month 😭

[@calvinhuanweichen1809]

I wonder they say monthly or yearly...

[@urbannomad8126]

I studied business and hold an MBA. My first salary was 17k granted 17 years ago. That same job pays 38k today. So the college kids expectations are a bit out there.

[@mohtalk]

A comp sci degree easily gets you 70-90k if in a major city I graduated on '16 and my pay was 75k,

[@blogit24]

Some of these comments think the CS majors are overestimating but they're really not lol. Tech pays a ton and "lower paying" industries like aerospace in low cost-of-living areas still pay software engineers a minimum of 70k

[@milanthakkar9493]

Exactly!!

[@TopODaMernin]

Just so you all know… 1) computer science is an extremely oversaturated and competitive field… entry level you are going to be closer to 50-60k until you have experience (which is what they care about). 2) job hopping to hunt higher salaries is a great way to burn bridges and never find a good job…. Tech companies talk…. They WILL call your former employer and they will want to know why you left. 5 jobs in 5 years is not a good thing on a resume… a company likes to see consistency and dedication to your craft… not a salary hunter.

[@etfreima2080]

This is such bullshit lmfao job hopping is so common in tech and there are so many tech companies, they don't care at all. The salaries are bumping up because tech people leave when they find better opportunities so companies have to compete to keep competent employees. IDK where the hell you're getting your info

[@jackmathieson1903]

How do Americans earn so much? In the UK a graduate in computer science or engineering will earn about £30k

[@celinecooper9273]

These entry wages are crazy for French people; it is much much lower here
