Here that's true minimum wage is around $200.
But the Government doesn't tax anything less than $600 per month.
Most corporate seniors are high school graduates that worked their way up starting from the bottom up(from old times). It also depends on the degree you have studied, for instance you can't expect to get an immediate job with a Hospitality/HR certificate. Yet if you do BSc you're most likely to get a job before you even leave college.
If you did LLB(you're lawyer) and you're newbie it's pretty difficult because the starting salary is something around $1000 if you no previous experience.
What makes things a bit easier is the lower standard of living. e.g The money it takes me to rent, buy groceries, have fun, waste and still get change here will only afford to pay rent and be broke in London
Yeah Its the same here minus the taxations.. they still tax us here z.z
And Yeah the law system here is overcrowded with 25 lawyers being admitted after Legum Baccalaureus and the LEC certificate from Trinidad every year.. The courtrooms are overcrowded here.
One of the reasons why I don't wanna study law here.


But, it would all depend on you meeting the right people, really. And you'd have to be prepared to not always do things in a honest way.
