This is an "FYI" to all my former co-workers who were always (and probably still are) complaining about how AOL's not paying them enough.
The average starting salary offered by accounting firms increased to $43,370 as compared to $42,797 last year; followed by engineering services firms which increased to $47,161 from $45,807 and consulting services employers which increased to $46,856 from $45,278. The Salary Survey also reported that the demand for college graduates has been increasing and that among the 62 career fields with a percentage change in salary offers last year, 53 showed an increase.
Although most college graduates reported an increase in their average starting salary offers, computer science graduates experienced a moderate increase. Their average salary offer rose 2.3 percent to $50,820, while business disciplines saw a 5.3 percent increase and liberal arts graduates saw a 13 percent increase in their average offer.
