social networks around salary for
social media jobs.
We were getting varied views and INR

5. • High earnings seem possible from the very beginning of
the social media career, this is mostly because a lot of
professionals have previous work experience of many
years in another field – as can be seen in subsequent
slides
• There seem to be a few freak deviances where people
after many years have a very low pay
• Overall, social media seems to be a fairly lucrative
career option in India
6. Previous Work Experience
• 56% have previously
worked in another
field
• Most are experienced
in traditional
marketing & sales
channels

Total set: 105 people
9. Education Qualifications – Does it
matter?
Data Set: 49 – postgraduates 52 – graduates 4 – undergraduates
An overall healthier payscale can be seen for
post grads. It can be accounted by,
Having more years of work experience
Asking a higher salary (this can be seen from the
dips in the comparison chart in the next slide – they
are less steep for post grads)
