hi,

to be honest, there could be a large variance in the starting salary for SIM UOL grads - couple of factors which could determine the starting salary:
i) class of honours
ii) asking salary during the job application
iii) impression during interview
iv) work experience (if any - part time/contract etc)

all the above factors affect the starting salaries of grads from SIM. i'v had friends who go as low as $1.8k to as high as $4.2k (similar grade comparison, i.e. those who have graduated with a second upper similar to myself).

those in uniformed organisations (and/or public sector) on median receive a higher salary. on the other hand, the top few percentiles of the salary: $3.7k to $4.2k, are working in fund management firms / consulting firms - which are private sectors.

as for myself, i received a job in a local bank. although not as fantastic starting salary as my peers who entered non local banks, its quite comfortable for a start at $2.8k. non-local banks pay fresh grads (who enter as analyst rank) $3.4k minimum monthly.

cheers (:
