C# Investment Banking rates - City

[Lewis]

Looking on jobserve rates seem to have leaped. There are load of roles for up to £600 p/day (investment banking, front office). I'm sure these sorts of things were more like £500 p/day last year. Have rates really risen or is this just agency bull.

I know two mates on 650 doing C#/Java for IBs in the City. Pretty experienced and whizzkiddish though.

Mostly the rate ranges from £400 - £700/day. Depending on your experience and how good you are.

Newcomer or little bus experience probably get around 400 - 500, but you can always push for more. If you have business knowledge can go for 550 - 650 bracket.

£700/day is not unheard of and very possible. However these figures are the past couple of years, it might go down after the credit crunch trouble.

Geeky enough to get by but more in the turn up late and dishevelled still smelling of beer mould rather than your dedicated national health glass wearing IT nerd mould.

I can personally vouch for the £700/day being achievable seeing as that's my daily rate
