Job Seekers Crave Pay Transparency
Salary is one of the most important pieces of information that job seekers value when looking for a job. Indeed automatically pulls salary details from job descriptions when present, and employers can input salary details when posting a job. When salary information is not included, Indeed intends to add a salary estimate to the post, based on a variety of factors, including job title, experience qualifications, education requirements and job location. Employers can modify the estimate.
