Is it unwise to think one can land a 200k job right after college?🤔
Nope FB gives a 100k sign on to interns
Here's Microsoft standard offer to new grads this year: Base - 118k Stock (over 4 years) - 160k Signon cash - 50k In addition to this they'll get about 15k target merit bonus. That's over 178k ongoing and 228k the first year. I know Facebook and Google pay even more. So, it's very much possible you'll be able to have 200k tc your first year.
Oracle pays 125k + 5200 shares over four year + 30k sign on + 10k (after tax) relocation cash to new grads from certain schools. I took it because I liked the team. My friend just let google match it.
Do you have some experience working in your field?
No newly grad
So no internships or volunteer work in the area you want to be employed in at all?
I got 170k TC from Amazon
It’s ambitious but not impossible. Also depends on your field.
