šŸ“Š What this means for you

What do these numbers show besides the fact that these industries lead the pack in terms of pay?

  1. These industries invest heavily in their younger talent. This often means you get to work on more interesting things as an intern (your time is too valuable for coffee runs!).
  2. However, the higher the pay, the greater the competition. So if you're angling for a role in these industries, make sure you prepare a stellar CV and read up on these industries in our advice section.
