Highest Paid Graduate Jobs - You Set Your Bar

Curiosity has its own reason for existence. Sir Albert Einstein said this once! As young enthusiastic graduates, it is always on top of mind to uncover the mystery of salaries and earning potential. There is always a quest to know how and what past graduates are earning.

Raise the bar to your full potential 


It is our learning from facts and reports that service industry, especially technology and professional services, lead the table along with traditional heavy industry like oil and gas. Here is a quick look at some of the highest paid jobs currently:




Company Employee Title Annual Salary Business
SalesForce Software Engineer 129k Cloud Service
Hitachi Data Systems Sales Support 134k Technology
Cisco Technical Leader 135k Technology
EOG Resources Engineer 138k Oil Exploration
Devon Energy Exploration and Production 155k Oil Exploration
Hilcorp Energy Company Engineer 159k Energy
Arnold & Porter LLP Associate 160k Law Firm
Perkins Coie Associate 165k Law Firm
Alston & Bird Associate 182k Law Firm
Bingham McCutchen LLP Associate 216k Law Firm




The average is arrived for specific job (role) and not from total number of employees. As we have been saying continuously that we are in talent age - passing stone age, industrial age and information age. Wherever talent is and whoever has got talent, they will be on board and paid well. Above statistics is a proof to underline this once again.  Say it with technology, engineering, law - they all own bright minds just like you.


Fortune magazine has published detailed reports on the above and also several other lists relevant for the Graduate students community. We hope you review these and take advantage in your job search.

As you remember the sacrifices and dedication of lot of brave men and women on memorial day, we hope that their stories inspire you to rededicate to offer the best out of you to your employers or business you are in.
