Ask HN: Should you include salary range on an international job post?

3 pointsby BaronVonSteubenabout 1 year ago
When posting a job opening, we normally include salary range. However, we are expanding this role to include international applicants, and the salary range can be different depending on regional market rates. This means that we either:<p>1. Post a range that is way too high or too low for some regions, which badly messes with expectations and can be very misleading to candidates, defeating the whole point of posting salary ranges in the first place.<p>2. Post a range that is so broad as to be meaningless (which is what some companies appear to be doing now). However this can also mislead candidates.<p>3. Omit the salary range entirely. This is obviously not ideal, but personally less information seems better than wrong information.<p>What do you do when posting international jobs? How has that worked?

I&#x27;ve never had this problem, so I have no personal experience or research to draw from. But my first thought is that if you&#x27;re going to adjust the salary you pay according to the location of the employee, then perhaps you should specify the salary range in the listing as a percentage of median income?<p>So instead of saying &quot;100-150k&#x2F;yr&quot;, you could say something like &quot;2-3 times the median income for the area where you live&quot;.
