JOB MARKET RESEARCH · Workflow idea

Compare role requirements and stated pay without losing the source.

Choose a role or public job posting and organize the employer, responsibilities, qualifications, benefits, and any stated salary range into a readable record. Keep the original reference and observation date attached, distinguish listed facts from interpretation, and ask a researcher to verify the details before drawing conclusions about compensation or the market.

02 / The work

5 tasks.
One useful outcome.

Helps recruiters and researchers compare public job information and understand what employers say about roles and pay.

  1. Choose a role and research purpose

    Set the job title, geography, and question that the research should help answer.

  2. Review public job postings

    Gather the employer, role description, responsibilities, qualifications, benefits, and original posting reference.

  3. Record stated compensation clearly

    Capture a listed range with its currency, location, and pay period, or mark compensation as not stated.

  4. Verify details and posting freshness

    Have a researcher confirm the role, employer, dates, and compensation context against the original posting.

  5. Review conclusions before using them

    Require a responsible person to assess the sample and approve any consequential hiring, compensation, or public-reporting use.

03 / The result

The handoff

A dated job research record with employer, role details, stated compensation, source reference, and verification status.

Keep in mind

Postings can be incomplete, expired, or unclear about location, currency, and pay period. Verify each detail in its original context, label missing salary information rather than estimating it, and do not use a summary as a hiring decision or a definitive market benchmark.

04 / Make it yours

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Define roles, locations, and research questions

Choose the job families, geographies, and observation period that fit the research purpose.

Set consistent pay-recording rules

Specify how ranges, currencies, hourly or annual pay, benefits, and missing values should be recorded.

Keep source and date context

Store original references and check dates alongside each role so reviewers can revisit the posting.

Assign research and decision reviewers

Name who verifies records and who approves hiring, compensation, or external reporting decisions.
