minus-squarehightrix@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up33·11 months agoUnfortunately, this level of job regularly pays 200k plus or minus a bit. So I doubt it was a fat finger unless they meant 175-395.
minus-squareLordOfTheChia@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up6·11 months agoI usually average out the two salaries and use that as their “intended” starting pay. So (75 + 395)/2 = 235k a year avg starting salary for an average applicant. The top end I consider the pay if the applicant meets all the requirements listed in the job ad.
