The report includes some average salary figures by sector, with the caveat that compensation varies considerably by region and also does not always reflect additional salary benefits, signing bonuses or end-of-year bonuses.
"Our graduates go on to leadership positions and combine talent and experience to make a difference wherever they live and work," Lambert said.
