Public sector graduate pay overtakes private sector
The Guardian Thursday July 13, 2006
Students graduating this summer can for the first time expect to receive a higher starting salary in the public sector than in the private sector, according to new research. Management consultancy Hay Group's latest First Rung: Graduate Pay Trends report, published this week, has found that the average graduate starting salary in the public sector will this year be £21,445 - 7% above the average private sector wage of £20,035. Only the oil industry, where starting salaries average £25,300, will offer graduates more. For more on this story... http://education.guardian.co.uk/students/graduation/story/0,,1819632,00.html
