28K to study what?
You offer a certain position at a certain salary, if qaulified people apply, your at an appropriate pay level, if nobody qualified applies, your underpaying, if too many quality candidates apply, you've overestimated and you make lower final offers.
Who cares what Skokie or anybody else is paying but comparable information is easily and readily available anyway.
Just send me the 28K check.
I’ll do it for 10k
Say yes and I'll start googling now. I'll get back to you in a month to make it look reasonable.
Salary study
Pay me $65/hour for one week's work (40 hrs.) and I can conduct the research and produce a nice report. PowerPoint, if you like.
