According to a recent research that was conducted by JobStreet and published in April 2014, it showed that a majority of fresh graduates were struggling to make ends meet (approximately 77% who said that their salary does not leave them with any savings after spending on essentials such as car and study loans). The average pay across industries for fresh grads appear to be RM2,100 per month, but 60% of the respondents said that they have to ask for higher-than-average salaries of at least RM3,500 (30% even expected to be paid as high as RM6,500) in order to cope with the increased cost of living. How is the quality of our graduates? Education system need to be improved?
