# determine salaries — Recruiter

For a Recruiter, 'determine salaries' isn’t just about picking a number; it's a constant balancing act between attracting top talent, staying within budget, *and* ensuring internal equity. Daily tasks involve researching comparable roles (using tools like Salary.com, Payscale, Glassdoor, LinkedIn Salary, and industry-specific compensation surveys) to build salary ranges *before* even posting a job. You'll then discuss these with hiring managers – often needing to justify the range based on experience level, skills, location, and internal pay bands. A big part is also negotiating offers; understanding candidate’s current/expected compensation is crucial, and you need to be able to articulate *why* the offered salary aligns with value.
