Fresh poly grads with full-time work paid more last year, even as fewer found jobs

Polytechnic graduates with full-time work were paid more last year, even as fewer found jobs. This was revealed in a poll of more than 5,700 recent graduates across Singapore's five polytechnics. Last year, the median gross monthly salary was $2,900. Graduates who earned the most among their peers were those with diplomas in health sciences; humanities and social sciences; and information and digital technologies. Those paid the least were from sciences as well as arts, design and media courses.
