Interestingly, when comparing the di erence between the average desired starting salary amount of RM2737 with the average starting 2.6% RM 5,001 to 6,000 salary of RM2,528, it falls short by just 8%. This goes to show that the Master’s Degree 2.6% RM 9,001 to 10,000 students surveyed are the most pragmatic among the rest of the groups in this sense since two third of them agree that the actual salary falls within their expected salary range. We also The above chart illustrates the percentage of Master’s Degree students’ salary expectations based on a monthly wage range. noted 31.5% of Master’s Degree students surveyed expects no less than RM3,001 for a start.
Final conclusion : After a closer look at the above reports, we can conclude that as the students’ level of education increases, their level of salary expectations are much closerto the actual salaries earned by their peers working in the society. From this, we can see that the relationship between expectations in starting salaries against actual starting salaries of fresh graduates in Sarawak are more well-balanced as the level of education rises up. This may also mean that students are more realistic in their demands in salaries when they reach a higher education level.
