joining Marsh graduate program you have to make sure you are well liked and perform throughout your rotation. so hopefully at the end of the day you are being wanted by various teams and put yourself in a position to choose or share your preference. based on my observation, limited increment during 2yrs and generally you have to jump once u hit the 3-4yr mark to make a big leap in salary to above 5-6k. and when you job hop to another broker or insurer you'll have to request for salary based on your ability to contribute/market value rather than applying the 20-30% pay rise which will not get you far assuming your salary is around the 4kish range after 3yrs.

my rule of thumb when it comes to insurance career is to join a line which is unique n with more expats and more niche, usually those pays better than general retail product lines like Employee benefits n property etc.

fyi im the guy who shared my journey to 10k on page 86.

corporate world which industry are u thinking of in particular? or not really anyth in mind?

i will say an admin type role is not too much different than a "corporate" type role esp in an MA program in the earlier years. like i said, key is not to stay too long until u are handcuffed to that place because u dont have any transferable skillsets.

if its up to me, i will go with higher pay because typically when negotiating with HR here in SG, it can be based on your current compensation. higher starting pay = prolly higher next pay. then it comes down to what u enjoy doing, maybe u hate the admins in ntu/nus alr? idk.

bottom line dont stay too long either way. and fyi i wouldnt take what the guy above me said srsly, places worth their salt pay well to attract talent period. by saying prestigious companies can afford to pay less is bs, companies start to be prestigious because they pay well. not the other way round. as long as you make sure ure skillsets are relevant to transfer elsewhere, otherwise who cares abt prestige? lol

the reality is NUS as an employer is not a strong brand name in the market.....if you are happy hopping to SMU and NTU then maybe its ok....end of the day, NUS is non profit...you need to think why they are paying above market rate...haha
