The salary of graduates with a Bachelor of Journalism and Mass Communication (BJMC) degree also depends on the job designation, experience, location, and the media company they are working with. The new entrants in the industry can earn anything between ₹2.5 to ₹5 lakh annually, depending on the print, digital, television, or public relations sectors they are working in. Entry positions such as reporters, content writers, and media executives usually begin at the lower end of the salary scale, with higher-demand fields such as digital marketing, corporate communications, and broadcast journalism commanding higher pay.
After developing experience and skill, BJMC graduates can have a considerable growth in salary. Professionals with 3-5 years of work experience can make ₹5 to ₹10 lakh annually, particularly in well-established news agencies, advertising companies, and multinational corporations. Senior individuals like editors, media strategists, and public relations managers can make even more, especially in major cities where media and communications sectors flourish.
