investment bankers r definitely well-paid at ard $7000 to $9000 for fresh grads
but they worked insane hours
and damn hard to get in.. most prob nothing less than 1st class

that kind of pay most prob is principal engineer level ( usually >10 yrs experience)

Graduated 2002. IT. salary for 2007 was 72K. This was my progression.

2002 - 2200 per mth. No bonus
2003 - 3000 per mth. No bonus
2004 - 3500 per mth. No bonus
2005 - 4000 per mth. No bonus
2006 - Joined this company that pays really sad monthly salary, but gives good bonus at the end of the year. Started looking at salary on an annual basis. 58K annual.
2007 - 72K annual. <-- likely to be stuck at this range for a damn long time until I hop again.

Is this a fair range for someone of my age?

Grad in 2005...
In Banking Front office, junior on sales & trading desk

Worked for 3 years, still considered junior. Am now drawing 60k/annum with last bonus 8 months worth, so about 100k/annum.

Risk? I see people get fired left right centre all the time. In my 3 years as a junior i've had 3 different bosses. and tons of different colleagues.. Crazy turnover..

hi,

find your blog and discussion quite interesting, cos it's quite applicable to me now.

i'm thinking of switching career to finance/banking. but at the moment doing IT.

here's summary of my track record.

- graduated 2nd class upper (hons) BEng in Computer Engineering in NUS.

- Didn't like Engineering job, started 1st job in IT company.

2005 - $2500
2006 - $2900
2007 - $3400

decided to hop to another IT company

2008 - $4200

I feel that i'm doing quite well, but think can do better if i switch to finance/banking.

any advice?

note: All the IT companies are big MNC.
