Plus with India predicted to create more than 1.4 million new IT jobs by 2027, it must only be natural for young IT professionals to expect high-paying jobs.While the increase in the number of jobs may solve the unemployment wave in India, Edurekas study suggests that many of todays engineering graduates settle for low paying jobs as the skills they possess dont match the ever-evolving industry requirements.But while starting salaries are important, should it be a deal-breaker when deciding on your first job? Our research shows that the answer is an absolute YES.A high-paying first job determines the trajectory of your career in the long run. Moreover, Edurekas research suggests that an IT professionals first salary serves as the foundation for the salary growth they see in their career and therefore, is crucial to their future.With that said, lets take a look at the few first salary trends in India:Many of the entry-level IT jobs in India offer wages close to or less than 3-3.5 Lakh per annum.Out of the 15 lakh engineering graduates India produces every year, 20-30% work jobs well below their technical qualification and settle for lower pay packages.The average annual salaries of entry-level software developers in India is 3.5 times less when compared to the developer community around the worldSo, how do you secure a great first salary? How do you guarantee a starting salary that is 2x to 3x of the average first salary?Lets take a look at a few tips to help you get a great first salary:Begin by tapping the resources that are available to you as a recent graduate from your collegeLearn the fundamentals of computer science, programming, data structu res, algorithms, back-end, and front-end application development to become a competitive candidateDevelop an online portfolio of work samples, and demonstrate your knowledge through a blog or other content you createBuild versions of your CV that are tailored to specific job rolesGather knowledge about the job and the company and be prepared for an interview with the right questionsBuild a professional network and get insights from renowned Career Mentors and Industry expertsAll said and done, securing an entry-level job that pays well requires perseverance, but if you put in the time and energy, youll be rewarded with a satisfying career.That is exactly why Edureka has designed the Elevate Software Development Program a program designed by Edureka experts, industry veterans, learners from around the world and a large pool of instructors from companies such as Google and Microsoft to help engineering students develop the right skills, secure high-paying tech jobs and not settle for anything less.
