Day rates. No Bid Manager / Consultant / Associate advert in Ireland, at any experience level, stated a day rate during this period. Why we never annualise one →
How many adverts say what they pay. All 2 adverts behind the figures on this page state a usable salary: 2 in a structured field and 0 found only in the advert text. Contract and part-time adverts are not counted here; contract day rates have their own line. AI reads salaries found only in advert text and can misread them. How we read and count salaries →
