I think it's important to mention that most engineers will not end up in the public sector. Most of us work in the private sector for consultants or contractors where salaries are much lower (starting salary approx R20 000 a month, after 5 years approx R40 000 a month). Public sector jobs are limited and often difficult to attain, the public sector also does not necessarily provide the same amount of technical mentorship required for engineers to register professionally.
The video is so informative, thank you! I'd like to point out that the information for Lawyers is slightly incorrect. we in fact do 4 years of law school to attain a LLB, 5 years if it is a post graduate degree and then we go on to do 2 years of articles, write board exams and then only we are admitted - provided that the board exam is passed.
Thank you Doc, your channel is so help full to us who about to start university. Can you please compare the salaries of different types of Engineers like Electronic engineers, Civil engineers and so on...
Thanks for watching. In the public sector the salary is the same for all engineers, similar to doctors in the different specialties, specialist doctors all get the same salary according to the DPSA regulations The private sector is where the difference lies. I will do a bit of research and see if I can answer your question.
It's a difficult question to answer because it depends on the various factors like rate per hour, expertise, etc. I think it depends on an individual and the way they market themselves.But specialists in any field I suspect would earn the more than generalists.
Great video! Thank you. If possible could you please do a comparison of salaries between the 5 registration categories in psychology? Research, clinical, counselling, industrial, educational.
Thanks for watching.There is no difference in salary between the different categories. They are all paid the same according to the DPSA rates. The Department of Higher Education pays at a different rate though. So a university post pay is different from the DPSA published rates. Please check this video on psychologist salaries if you have not watched already. ua-cam.com/video/yEcvDenisHA/v-deo.html
@ Nomdeni Mofana, I get your point. The idea is to compare like to like. You need a LLB to be a candidate attorney. The LLB is at a NQF level 8 whilst BA Law is at a NQF level 7. Other countries do have 3 year LLB courses. But we are referring to South Africa Both the medical and engineering courses are at NQF level 8.
Thank you for the correction. Intially LLB was at an NFQ level of 7 - many years ago. It has now moved to 8 but the entry salary has remained the same.
Wrong, Engineers are not paid any less than what is stipulated in the video, there is no room to reduce salaries below the minimum notch in the public sector. However, all rookie professionals(incl doctors, engineers, teachers, etc) get paid less in the private sector. As for job opportunities, all professionals are terribly affected, especially in the public sector
Thank you for the correction. If you go from matric and directly study LLB it's 4 years. The routes can take up to six years. Similarly, for engineering and medicine, it can take longer if you study other undergrad degrees and then apply. So yes its the minimum time the 4-year degree is what we are comparing
@@InterncomservVlog I like the degree of your accuracy of your comparison. I am an Engineering graduate and would like to study medicine. What are the chances of getting into a medical school in SA? my undergraduate grades are not so bad. Also what should I do to improve my chances?
Good job Doc keep pushing. Your content is pure gold
Thank you so much for the kind words. 🙏
@R2 is the name thank you once again

Thank you for the information. Everyone assumes the private sector pays more.
Really depends on the type of engineer you're are

Engineer's get paid good salaries overall.
When you look at private companies/ COE's you will be shocked at how much more they earn.
This should be shown to matrics before they choose careers. Great video Dr
The problem is TAX, the more you earn the more they take.
Keep up the good work. This channel has rich content 👌 👏 🙌
Thank you. Much appreciated.

Law (LLB) education is 4 years. It’s 3 years if you study BaLaw or BcomLaw, in which you then you have to study 2 more years to have an LLB degree.
Thank you for the information.
Thank you for the video Doctor. The Lawyer one was immensely informative, any other lawyers would be appreciated.
Hey Doc can you compare the salary of a doctor and a Chartherd Accountant/Professional accounting / Management Accountant.
Great content BTW🙏
Yep i second that.
Thank you. Great topic suggestion. I will work on it.
I really enjoy your videos. So informative, thank you
Glad you liked it.
Best one yet so far.
Thanks for watching and the support.
Thank you for this video 🙏 Can you please do a neurosurgeon salary one next
Who earns the most in the private sector a doctor, lawyer, or engineer?

It's mostly Doctors. Bcoz seats r less in medicine

@@InterncomservVlog Thank you Doc.
Can you do a video on the journey on becoming a surgeon or similar type of specialisation
I will look at it. Thanks for topic suggestion.
please do surgeon Dr
Great content Sir🙏🏽
Thank you for watching ...
A law undergraduate degree is a 4 year program not 3
Thank you for the correction. That makes the starting salary all the more unfair as compared to engineer and doctors.
There are 3 year law program BA Law and BCom Law
@@vuyogqola you still need to do an LLB for two years if you choose that route. So that is a total of 5 years

@@InterncomservVlog yes hence i said the LLB is 4 years not 3 years
LLB is 4 years. Most Universities now require prospective students to take 3 year BA & LLB (2) totalling 5 years.
U incorrect in that regard.
Thank you for the correction. Intially LLB was at an NFQ level of 7 - many years ago. It has now moved to 8 but the entry salary has remained the same.
hi, can you compare the salary of an actuary and a doctor
I will look into it. There is no public sector actuaries I'm aware off so I will look into the private sector and compare.
I have just been accepted in pharmacy and chemical engineering, which one do you think is better salary wise and which one has more job opportunities?
Pharmacy.
This is so help full thanx
Thank you. It was your topic suggestion.
How is podiatry career path,employment opportunities,growth and salary?private practice market and service demand.
Please do data scientists
Lawyerd salary really isn't that good its quite disappointing to be honest
Thank you 😊
You do 4 years in law school not 3 corrections in that
the truth is engineers get paid much less, and there are less opportunities
Lying

I am soong admim clerk will i ever reach this level
The law years you have given are inaccurate its actually 4 - 6 years of studying theres also different routes thats why theres different years
