Does the amount of prior work experience a student has before entering Thunderbird have an effect on starting salaries?
Answer. The amount of work experience you’ve had can influence your starting salary depending on whether you are a career-changer or are looking to advance your career in the same function and industry. Historically, there is a general correlation of years work experience to average salary. In 2008, graduates with less than one year work experience averaged $85,428 base salary, while graduates with five years work experience or more averaged $89,153. Within these groups, however, a wide variety of salaries were reported.
