Manage Visibility of Salary Range or Pay Grades
According to new regulations, some institutions may need to make salary information available to applicants for all posted positions. A Faculty Search Institutional Administrator can set whether or not salary range or pay grade information will appear on the Apply Now page for all positions posted by an institution. Institutional Administrators can also set whether or not Salary Range or Pay Grade is a required field when creating positions for an institution. This article describes how to manage the visibility of salary ranges or pay grades.
By default, the Salary Range or Pay Grade Visibility setting is disabled and the Salary Range or Pay Grade field is optional.
