I'm a diploma holder. After 3.5 years in the working world, my current salary is $2k.
At present, I'm taking a part-time degree from UOL and from your $2k starting salary, I'm starting to think that I'm wasting my money and time taking higher studies @ UOL. I hope I'm not making the wrong choice.
Do you mind sharing what industry are you working in?

Hi, I just started work this week, in supply chain industry. Sad to say, my degree is a generic one (just business, no specialization) and I don't have any working experience to backup my demand for a higher pay.
Like you said, it's demoralizing. But this scenario doesn't happen to everyone; I guess luck and networking plays a huge part in your career hunt too. I'm hoping that I can get a better job in the finance industry after receiving my transcript, but I heard banks aren't recruiting much recently..
Look at the bright side bro, at least you've got working experience, I'm sure you'll be able to get a better paying job after you graduate, all the best!
