Could anyone advise more on the salary in construction industry for fresh graduates like project engineer, project management? Is it true that the pay differs depending on type such as main contractor, sub-contractor and consultant? Thanks in advance.

Hi, anyone care to shed some light on progression for civil engineers?

I'm an undergrad. Quite keen to know about the progression.

After starting from project engineer etc, what's the progression like?

Able to move on to managerial role? Or maybe if working for companies, able to move on to sales office for developers?
