Pay figures. Posted means the employer published it in the original listing. Estimated means the job feed modelled it — the employer did not publish a figure. From listing text means we extracted it from the listing wording rather than a structured field. Where no figure appears, none was available. All are as-published and may exclude bonus, equity or benefits — for a market-wide reference use the BLS wage bands above.
