View job How is this Technical Recruiter salary data calculated?
The figures are computed from live job listings, not from surveys.
- Source: the salary ranges employers publish in their own job listings, collected from company career pages and applicant-tracking systems.
- Method: each listing counts once, at the midpoint of its range. Headline figures use USD listings only, and the median is the middle value, not an average.
- Coverage: only listings paying $100k+ or more are included, so the data does not describe all Technical Recruiter pay. Listings that publish no salary are not counted.
- Freshness: closed and stale listings are removed, and the figures are recalculated as the listings change.
