Salary by Job for All People in All Surveys

National Salary Survey: List of Job Salaries

The chart above shows a list of job salaries for various professions. Ranking first on this list of salaries are lawyer and construction manager jobs. For more detailed salary data on these careers, see PayScale's Lawyer Job List and Salaries for Construction Project Management. While it's helpful to look at a list of salaries for careers by job title, it only shows one piece of the puzzle. Other important factors affecting salaries for all careers include location, experience, employer type and more. The above chart is obviously not comprehensive - it merely provides a partial list of salaries for careers in different fields. You may be more interested in a list of job salaries for nursing, architecture, teaching, etc. Using PayScale's salary data, you can find a job list and salaries for the careers that most interest you. The PayScale Cost of Living Calculator also provides a comprehensive list of job salaries by showing the median salary range for different job titles along with the cost of living in U.S. cities. For example, if you're moving to Portland, Oregon and want a list of salaries for careers in medicine, use the calculator to find both Cost of Living and Physician Salary data for that area.

Average Salaries by Job Title

You may have noticed that the list of job salaries above provides data on median rather than average salaries. Do you know why searching for median job salaries will produce better results than looking for a list of average salaries by job title? Find out by reading the Ask Dr. Salary article, "Why is Median Better than Mean for a Typical Salary?"
