Entry Level Investment Manager Salary??

Have seen a UK grad scheme advertised for a relatively small Investment Management firm with c.£13bn under management. For 'salary' it simply says 'competitive'. Anybody know the going rate for entry level IM schemes in the UK?

Asset Management Mock Interview

“Today’s session was amazing and incredibly useful. My mentor was a massive help with both networking and interview preparation, particularly for my ongoing HSBC programme application. He helped me understand how to approach networking more effectively and gave me valuable advice on preparing for the next stage of the recruitment process. I really appreciate the time and effort he puts into helping me, and I left the session feeling more confident and clear about my next steps. As always, he was very kind, approachable and easy to speak with, which made the whole experience even better.”

I learned how to structure my responses more effectively, communicate my strengths with greater confidence, and stop downplaying my experiences and accomplishments. The session also helped me recognize which technical topics and industry-specific questions I need to research further, allowing me to prepare more strategically for future interviews.”

IM is so big man. What type of product/service? IM could be considered hedge fund, prop firm, etc. In a hedge fund you can have an analyst, trader, etc... too broad
