Review on Compensation.BLR.com by Hector Smith

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great tool plus great customer service

I like that you have so many different choices for salary ranges; however it is difficult because some jobs don't even show up under certain categories! It would help if there were more options or less "standard" pay scales (like with most other sites). There are not enough companies listed at all - just about every category has 5-10 entries but very few actually list over 10 jobs/companies per category. If your interested in compensation info from multiple sources as well then check out PayScale's Salary Survey Tool. You will get much better results when comparing across employers since they provide actual employment figures instead of an average range which could vary drastically between two similar positions within one employer. We use it mainly in the Marketing department where we need to know what our peers' market positions should be compared against. I like that it is easy to use, has a lot of options for searching jobs and salary ranges are very accurate. It also has a free version which makes it easy to try out without having to pay for anything! There isn't much I dislike about it. I wish there were more options for filtering search results so you could find specific jobs or companies easier. I am solving the problem of finding good candidates for my team by searching for candidates with similar skillsets and experience levels.
