| Salaries in most of the main financial occupations have fallen, some significantly, between 2007 and 2008, according to a survey of job postings in FinanceJobs.ie over the past year – so is it the end of an era, or the beginning of something new?, Geraldine Pollock asks. Job offers in financial services remained firm through the Autumn of 2007, but with the dawning of the new year, the trend, like house prices, has been downward. According to the first annual survey of salary levels computed on the FinanceJobs.ie website, salary offerings in summer 2008 are running down by between 5 p.c.-10 p.c. in the main financial occupations compared with the end of 2007. |
