Salary.
Whether to include a salary range in a job posting is an issue that has been the subject of heated debate among human resources professionals for a long time, and the debate continues when it comes to electronic job postings. One recent study of recruiting Web sites, however, indicated that including the pay rate or range resulted in a higher response rate.
Sometimes as much as three times the rate for a similar posting that did not include salary information. Some companies don’t post salary information because their pay rates are not competitive. If you’re not sure about your rates and want to compare them with national rates or with rates in your geographical area, your industry, or with organizations of comparable size, go to Wageweb (http://www.wageweb.com).
Wageweb is an online salary service that provides data on some 170 positions. You can view national rates for free, but a fee is charged for the other most specialized figures. The Wageweb home page.
