What's more, that guy is only a 2:1

If it helps, i am in a industry development role at my statboard as a project manager.

I understand that while it is important to help manage the expectations of the private university students who’s syllabus are definitely not as intense as the local universities, there’s no need to throw the SIM-UOL/RMIT students under the bus just because they are asking if $XXXX is acceptable. At the end of the day, we’re all here either to get a sensing of how much fresh grads are being paid or to offer advice . There are also a couple of outstanding students (both academics and social skills) who i’ve seen during my days at RMIT. The workforce only looks at your bachelors for a initial sensing of the candidate, how you impress your potential employer and secure a job offer is up to you regardless of where you studied.

Have you even graduated? My classmates a bunch of them stepped into the workforce @2.8k average some even lesser. Most of them grad with 2.2 hons. If you are not fch you can forget about getting anything above 3.5k. Lol sad but true. Limbei ntu accountancy and finance although started with 3.4k I'm at 5.2k after 1 hop and total experience is 3 years.

There won't be smoke without fire. Regardless of UOL or RMIT, it is well known that some courses in SIM GE have similar criterion of pass grades as their entry requirements, and that makes your initial argument invalid in the first place. If your idea of a qc for a good university is merely pass grades, what makes the rest of the students who put in the effort to study hard and score As and Bs?

I believe its better to accept reality and work harder instead thinking that you did 'well enough' to enter into a university that accepts almost everyone on the street. It's because of this non-existent qc that allows many students to fail their modules in UOL and drop out. But if you got through the course with good grades, I think that is good enough qc that sets you apart from the rest.

What is your job function? How many months of bonus do you have? 3 years at 5.2 k is decent as a local grad.

That was my point - SIMGE students should learn to temper their expectations and accept lower pay. It is the reality.
