The salary distribution sits with the lower quartile at $62,500 and the upper quartile at $90,535 around a median of $75,000, which points to a fairly concentrated mid-market pay band rather than a wide spread of advertised compensation. Salary coverage was substantial at 452 postings, so the pay figures reflect a sizeable share of the quarter’s published roles.
Work arrangement and posting timing both leaned toward site-based hiring: on-site postings dominated the mix, hybrid was a smaller secondary option, and remote was limited. That pattern is echoed by the monthly remote-share series, which moved from 0% in May to 2.7% in June. The job-type mix was also led by full-time advertising, with contract, part-time, and freelance postings appearing in much smaller numbers. Tagging data reinforces the functional focus of the board, led by Human Resources, Hr Technology, Talent Acquisition, and Hiring.
By employment type: Full Time 877 · Contract 33 · Part Time 22 · Freelance 1.
