If you have just graduated and hunting high and low for a job then this may be your dream list. This month, Glassdoor Inc published statistics on the job market for this year’s graduates. The career website has revealed the most popular and highest paying jobs for new grads in 2017.
There seemed to be a current theme running with regards to positions in sales. The highest-paying job on the list was software engineer (with a salary of $90,000), followed by engineer ($70,500) and financial analyst ($64,453).
