I was chatting with a new master’s grad today about audit jobs. I told him starting pay is around $85k, and he actually asked why it’s so low and if the economy is crashing. I started in 2020 at $65k, so $85k sounds like a win to me. Are new grad expectations really getting this high, or is it just him?

Just put 65k in an inflation calculator and 65k in 2020 is 81k today, so basically the same salary

I think it depends on the city and firm. There are cities where $85k would be low. Big 4 in NYC pay over $100k now, or maybe it’s just under.

For a MASTER'S degree in a HCOL city, it's low.

Agreed

Low

SPHR exam- has anyone ever been “randomly selected” for an application audit? This just happened to me and the sheer amount of effort that is going to go into collecting all the documents almost makes me not want to follow through. Since I didn’t finish undergrad, they’re asking for a copy of my high school diploma or transcript and that itself is going to be an absolute nightmare to get hold of. Guess I’m not really looking for a solution here, just venting.
