For graduates, the salary is always a crucial concern when applying for jobs and deciding whether to accept an offer.

According to a white paper on employment in Guangdong province during the first quarter of this year, the average salary for students with a

bachelor’s degree was 2,795 yuan a month.

In a nationwide survey of more than 9,000 students by China Youth Daily at the end of last year, the average monthly salary barely reached

3,000 yuan.

According to Zhang Ruiguang, HR manager at Gree Group Co Ltd, it is unusual to give a graduate without any work experience a high salary.

“I would suggest students not worry about entry level salaries too much,” said Zhang. “If you think the job and company offers good prospects,

don’t waste the offer over a bit of money.”

Remember that your entry salary does not determine your income for the rest of your career.

According to a report by CBN Weekly, a business weekly based in Shanghai, the third year of working for a company is when the salary starts to

rise.

But it also pointed out that 2012 saw the smallest salary increases in China, with salaries going up by an average of only 9 percent.

Interestingly, after working for a year, 53.6 percent of employees are satisfied with their benefits package, despite the fact that the entry-level

salary was comparatively low.

21st Century talked to four students who majored in English to get their views on starting salaries and how they feel about their career

development.
