You are not doing anything wrong, it is what the high earners are doing right.

For eg, are you aware that fresh grad engineers with good honours are earning close to $4k per month or more (for first class honours) in the civil service, uniformed service and stat boards? With average 3 months bonus thrown in we are looking at $64k pa already. These people are only 25 yrs old. By 31, can you imagine what they would be earning? Those with high potential would already be in managerial positions earning much much more.

I'm a 31 yr old IT grad (no honours) working in IT for the education industry (6 yrs). I earn about 36k per annum and I've never been offered anything more than 3.2k at interviews. I have many letter of commendations and won awards like outstanding employee etc.. Planning to do my MSc once i can afford it. What am I doing wrong?
