Can you give a specific example of a salary you think is high? If anything I think Robert Half is low

It said SEC reporting manager as $225k in hcol. Maybe it factors in bonus/equity. But I thought that was a real high base for a manager

Hi HR Professionals! I am revising our current employment application form.

How does contract to hire work? If I’m offered $37/hr on w2 for 3 months and then possibly a permanent position, how much can I expect to get annually as a full time company employee as a BI data analyst II? I have a M.S. and certificates in DA but this will be my first job as DA.
I prefer working for what is offered on contract without negotiating, and then negotiate when I transition into the company itself so I have a better chance of getting the contract position and show my skills.
