First, cover the basics the ads ask for most (see the requirements above: python (50%), aws (43%), gcp (40%), azure (33%)). Then look at what separates higher-paid ads:
Among the 30 ads that publish a pay range, we compared the median pay of ads that name each item with ads that do not. This is a correlation in the ads, not a promise: an item can pay more because it comes with senior roles.
| Item named in the ad ⇅ | Ads naming it ⇅ | Ads not naming it ⇅ | Median pay midpoint with it ⇅ | Difference vs ads without it ⇅ |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| machine learning | 5 | 25 | $505,000 | +$162,500 |
