6500 Dollars A Month for A Trainee at Google and Microsoft
A few days ago, we learned that a trainee at Facebook earns about $ 5000 per
month. That's huge when you consider that some will never reach that amount in
salary (about $ 60 000 per year) in their working lives.
Now there are even higher: at Microsoft and Google, this is
between 6500 and 7000 dollars a month...
Mobile Reviews Online sent me the following table, made from
data collected from 10 to 20 trainees per company. Companies are ranked by the
total score assigned to them by students. Now here is what happens by the
classification by the amount paid each month to the trainees:
- Microsoft 6746 dollars for a research intern
- Google 6463 dollars for a trainee level software engineer
- Intel 5681 dollars for a trainee level technical 3rd round
- Amazon 5552 dollars for an engineering intern-ship in software development
- Price Waterhouse Coopers 4702 dollars for a consultant trainee

If you look at the table, you notice that the second column
contains a note that assesses the difficulty of the internship interview for
acceptance into the company. Here are some pearls told by the candidates:
Google "How many ping pong balls can you get into a
school bus?"
Microsoft "What looks like a student dormitory in 10
years?"
Ernst & Young "What do you think of that can of
Pepsi?"
JPMorgan Chase "If you have two hourglasses, one
lasts 7 minutes before the sand falls and the other lasts 4 minutes, how do you
use both to get a precise time of 12 minutes?"
