In white collar tech fields here in DC its often the same way. First year (or no experience) salary level for the field I work in is about 50K as well. Salary range at my pay-grade under our company structure is 45K to 65K. After three years I'm a little higher than the middle of that range. The people we interview often say things like "Well, my friend has a similar job and said I should ask for 65 to 70." What they fail to realize is that said friend has 10 years of experience to their zero. First year or no experience shouldn't expect to make the industry average in a given field.
