Average salary expectations, June-August 2016
This is the first time we
have released our data on
salary expectations
amongst job-seeking
graduates.
This trend broadly aligns
with market forces, with
the most in-demand
groups both commanding
and expecting the highest
salaries.
The spread is, however,
relatively limited – and
certainly much more
limited than the full
spectrum of graduate
salaries on offer.
