I agree it goes on experience in the industry. Responsibility means nothing, but you work longer for generally less.
I have just spoke to a pal of mine who works at a big agency in Manchester....You'd have to CHASE them them to get in, if you catch who im on about. His rough estimate of wages would go something like....
1-3 years JUNIOR - (Whatever the qualifications) - £12-18k
3-5 Ye exp - Middleweight - 18-25k
5 - xx+ Yrs exp - Senior 25K++++
Obviously there are exceptions to this for amazing people but I hope that helps?
Mt first job out of uni I was taken on (as a Junior) to replace a senior designer who'd just left. Que 14 hour days 6 days a week for 7k.
It's really crap we all know, as you can go and work in a office at 18 with no bloody decent skills and get 23k......Maybe we should all sack this game of and learn how to use word and other Microsoft products to make things look shit??
