Best place to research salaries? I’m getting a wide range. Glassdoor is “highly confident.” Should I be highly confident in their range? I’m researching a Sr. Director Corporate Communications role in a major health care org. HELP!

Google “2022 marketing salaries” and you’ll come across at least two companies who publish fairly comprehensive studies on this.

LinkedIn has a salary research tool similar to Glassdoor.

If you really want to be a ninja, find comparable jobs in Colorado where they’re required to post salary information (just remember to account for cost of living differences in your market).

You’re still going to end up with frustratingly different figures. But the best you can really do is gather data from multiple places and then triangulate from there to get a range.

So helpful. Thank you! This should not be this difficult. Pay people what they are worth. The game is frustrating.

If going through a headhunter/ recruiter their ranges are usually best.

This can be helpful just for research purposes! You don’t have to use a third party recruiter to get the job, but if you reach out to a few on LinkedIn they’ll typically tell you what a range is over the phone,

Hi fishes,
I'm 22 and planning to take a life insurance. I'm comparing all policies and max life seems attractive as it has good claim settlement ratio and less premiums. But there is no office near our area. My worry is that if there is a need to claim in future, it can be done all online by my nominee? Is it recommended to take policy online in any platform(like policybazaar)?
Other options I'm considering are SBI life, HDFC life which offices are available in my locality.
Please guide
