How much does a Web Designer make?
My boyfriend is in his senior year in college and he's looking at different jobs such as Web designer, Software Developer, Computer Programmer, or a Database Technician. How much do any of these jobs pay? If you or someone you know work them do they like them? Where in the US does it pay better or worse?
We have searched different places and we are getting many different numbers across the board so any info would be great.
We live near Kansas City if that is relevant.
If your boyfriend's degree will be in computer science, go for software design/dev, systems analyst or Database development, where starting pay will likely be in the 60K range right out of college to $150K+ within 5 - 7 years.
If, instead, he earns his degree in something unrelated to the tech field, he will first need training of some kind if he is not disciplined and resourceful enough to learn it all from books.
Of all the occupations you named above, web designer probably pays the lowest, at least at first. Contrary to what one person said below about gaming design and/or programming, with a year or two of training from a community college, those guys can easily make 50K starting, and up to 100K or more after a few years--at least in the Seattle, WA area they do.
The highest paying tech states are California, Washington state and Massechusetts, followed by other states on either coast and others.
It's a great paying field, but there's no such thing as a 9 - 5 job in tech. The long hours require passion for the work. And, oh yeah...slackers need not apply.
