Market movement
Not enough historical evidence yet. Trend is shown only when both 90-day windows have enough comparable observations, preventing noisy “growth” claims from tiny samples.

How Jobiba calculates this
Evidence first, estimate second
- • Uses recent active Jobiba listings that contain employer/source salary data.
- • Requires an explicit salary currency and pay period before a listing can enter an aggregate.
- • Applies broad currency-specific plausibility floors/ceilings, then rejects extreme statistical outliers.
- • Groups title variants through Jobiba's canonical salary-role taxonomy so current estimates and historical trends use the same comparable cohort.
- • Annualizes hourly, daily, weekly and monthly pay; no foreign-exchange conversion is used.
- • Uses percentile medians and publishes a range only after the minimum comparable sample is reached.
- • Labels inferred pay on salary pages/jobs as a Jobiba estimate, never as employer-provided compensation.
