ApplyFrequently asked questions
Why show the median instead of the average?
The median (121 009 $) is the middle of the market: half of the offers pay more and half pay less. Unlike the average (122 578 $), it is not skewed by a handful of very high salaries.
What does the typical range mean?
From 91 520 $ to 132 800 $ is the middle half of all offers — the 25th to 75th percentile. A quarter of vacancies pay below 91 520 $ and a quarter above 132 800 $.
Where does the data come from?
From 21 open vacancies with a stated salary that Finder collects from public sources. Numbers are recalculated as the selection changes.
How do I tell whether I am paid fairly?
Compare your pay with the median and the quartiles: near 121 009 $ is the market level, above 132 800 $ is the strong quarter, below 91 520 $ is a reason to negotiate. Use the “Compare my salary” button on this page.
How we calculate salaries
Short methodology and the data behind these numbers.
- 1We collect offersOnly vacancies from open sources where the employer states pay are used.
- 2We normalise themA salary range is reduced to one comparable value per vacancy.
- 3We compute percentilesMedian, quartiles and the average are calculated from at least 5 offers; otherwise the wider country market is shown.
- 4We refresh the numbersStatistics are recomputed as new vacancies appear and closed ones drop out.
Figures are pay as published by employers: taxes, bonuses and seniority inside a grade are not accounted for.
