How this is measured
Each listing's pay is the middle of its stated range, converted to USD a year at the rates in the repository. Only listings that state pay count, which is 72% of the 4,944 Sales listings here. 4 listings with a mid-point outside USD 10,000–1,000,000 a year were dropped as likely data errors. A job open to several countries counts in each, and some employers state pay that includes variable pay. Employers who state pay are not a random sample, so treat this as what is advertised, not what people are paid. Each job links to the employer's own posting.
