Compensation Resources

How do you find good compensation figures on your prospects?  How do you know they are accurate?  These are questions we, as prospect researchers, often face.  Sure, we can rely on the Department of Labor’s Occupational Outlook Handbook or National Occupational Employment and Wage Estimates for general searches (both good options!).  But, what if even more specific information is available....?  We took a minute to gather some of our favorite compensation sites by industry and listed them out here on our blog.  These sources have definitely helped us out over the past year, and we hope they will do the same for you!
