FAQ

How accurate is Indeed salary data?

Indeed salary data comes from employee-submitted reports and verified salary information. Data points with higher sample sizes are generally more reliable. We recommend filtering for entries with sampleSize > 10 for statistical significance.

How often is salary data updated?

Indeed continuously collects new salary reports. Running the scraper regularly (weekly or monthly) helps you track compensation trends over time.

Can I scrape salaries for any country?

Yes, the scraper supports 57 Indeed country domains. Simply set the country parameter to your target market (e.g., "uk" for United Kingdom, "de" for Germany).

What's the difference between job title and company search?

Job title search finds salaries for a specific role across ALL employers - perfect for understanding market rates. Company search extracts all available salaries for specific employers - ideal for competitive analysis.
