2017 employment statistics

Each year Career Management Services (CMS) conducts an in-depth survey with our graduated students. Below you will find reported salaries, employment status, employment location & current employers of the respondents to the Undergraduate Student Exit Survey and the Graduate Student Exit Survey (below).

Graduate

Below you will find reported salaries, employment status, employment location and employers for respondents to the Graduate Student Exit Survey conducted 3 months after graduation for those students convocating at the June 2017 ceremonies.

The employment information below is based on the John Molson School of Business's Annual Exit Survey. All compensation information is self-reported by students. Note that these statistics reflect respondents’ annual salaries only. Typically, compensation depends not only on annual salary but other elements as well : signing bonus, performance bonus, fringe benefits, flexible schedule, annual vacation, pension plan, cost of membership to an association or professional corporation, professional development, company car and other non-monetary benefits. Also note that salaries are determined based on a variety of factors which can include: previous experience, location, industry, business size, etc.
