I'm skeptical about these responses. I went to UofT and myself and my friends all went on to careers after graduation that started between 40-60k annually back in 2015, including those in engineering and computer science. One of them graduated and went on to be an actuary (arguably the degree with highest earning potential) at a top firm and started at 60k. I think for the most part we're all making 6 figures now, but that's 8 years later, not on day 1 after graduation. Actuary friend is roughly making 140k today, but again, that's 8 years later with a few job hops and steady salary escalations. I find it hard to believe all these graduates are making 6 figures unless you interviewed hundreds of graduates and only showcased the outliers, or they are just not telling the truth. Also a new grad doing marketing for a startup making 6 figures? Please. As much as I enjoyed UofT, employers generally don't care where you went to school unless you're trying to get into one of the Bay St law firms, otherwise it usually has little to no influence on whether an employer hires you, or at least it's never been mentioned in any of my interviews.
I withhold judgement on the salaries because I do know that in certain fields (i.e. oil, investment banking) you can find that starting six figure salary and I graduated about 20 years ago. The part that surprises me are the comments about no debt after college (except for the guy going to medical school). Is that common for UofT graduates or are these people cherry picked too?
The COL is insane in Toronto people. Rent is $2k - $3k per month. That means you need to make around $40k after tax just to get by. Even Uber drivers are pulling in that much. If you’re starting at $60k, you’re only saving like $5k per year living frugally. That’s a terrible deal!
Only the guys in computer science and engineering who work in engineering consulting are probably (just probably) credible in their answers. The rest of the interviewees who claimed making 6 figures right out of school are simply not credible, this is someone who actually have done hiring at major firms talking.
It still would be a pretty good salary if you compare it on average, plus a lot of people live with family or move to cheaper areas (more likely in the states).

You're right, most employers don't care about the school you attended. On a side note, they really do value your job experiences.
I think Amazon is laying off people. why would they hire new people at the same time? I think they are lying.
starting salary average was 70k-90k for mid tier consulting/tech in 2018

Sounds like UofT degree is the path to a lucrative career
He didn't interview many liberal arts grads - not as lucrative career path
Some of these people are capping super hard
I sense jealousy
@@lolononojay9010 you are missing the truth
@@alanwalker5845 so they lying?why?
Lmao. Right out of grad and making 120k? That's a hard cap. Most start at 60-80k
I sense jealousy

How come they already have these salaries on their graduation day ? Rhey still have the graduation robes on. Kuat curious 🤨
you get recruited prior to grad
Some people are inflating their numbers lol. "Close to 100k", "Just under 100k" = no more than 70k lol.
