This tool is employer-reported data which is more meaningful than employee reported data on platforms like Indeed and Glassdoor. Additionally, you can run reports and input custom information to adjust for specific pay factors. It’s not perfect but the information will give you a baseline.
Google Alerts allows users to set up notifications for specific topics or terms. Whenever that term is mentioned on the web, the alert will send a notification to your email address. You can use the alert to follow a company you’re interested in or be notified about a new job posting within a specific company. Here’s how to?set-up Google Alerts .
