The cash bonus – aka the “Golden Hello” – is usually the preserve of the banking world. But Dyson, the vacuum cleaner company, is currently offering graduate engineering jobs which come with a starter bonus of £3,000.
The starting salary for engineering graduates at Dyson is pretty impressive anyway at £28,500 – and you can add on even more if you are qualified to post-graduate level.
The company is hoping that the £3,000 cash sweetener will help them attract another 150 top graduate engineers into their fold. With a shortage of students entering the world of engineering at the moment, Dyson hopes that the starting bonus will help them catch the attention of the best graduates in the job market.
Although the main base for Dyson is at Wiltshire in the UK, the company employs people in locations around the world. With manufacturing facilities and offices in the USA, Canada, Singapore and Malaysia, Dyson employs over 3,000 people worldwide. The company hopes that figure will rise to 4,000 in the next few years – and around a third of the jobs they advertise are for engineers and scientists.
