Justin [00:00:00] So Meredith, how much do Data Cadets actually get paid at the Australian Government? 

Meredith [00:00:03] The salaries vary a little depending upon what agency that you're working for. But the overall annual salary for a cadet will range from 52,000 up to $60,000 per year. You will get paid for the days that you work, so you might also earn more if you choose to work more during your university breaks, you will also get some really great employee benefits, including 15.4% of superannuation contributions. And finally, cadets are also eligible for academic support up to $800 per subject that you pass. This is actually capped at four subjects per semester though.
