It has already long been established that ite is the best

Definitely not the norm across most industries also. Everyone is looking to join tech due to the higher salaries.

all the humanities students + civil service + big 4/mid tier audit firms (starting pay below 3.5k)

want to be haolian try harder pls. Should the investment banking ppl come mock and say the average pay be 10k? lol

NUS CS graduates do not get paid an average of 6-6.5k. Learn to read a simple graduate employment survey you sad illiterate.

Yeah, based on article by ST (https://www.straitstimes.com/singapo...ies-inching-up), its 5k median for CS degree

[adriangohjw]

And about 4.5k to 4.8k median for NTU for Computer Engineering and Computer Science respectively (https://www.moe.gov.sg/-/media/files...u-ges-2021.pdf)

U should go back to your mama and ask what is the meaning of “maybe “

Do specify the industry, job scope, # of YOE, starting salary and how you reached your current salary (annual revision, promotion, hop company, etc).

Since tech pays so well, just change this thread to tech. No one earning below tech salaries wants to post here
