    Which jobs or companies pay their HR team over $200,000? In college, we were told it was possible to earn $200,000, or even $300,000. Where are those jobs?

  2. HR Director

    I spent hours interviewing for this HR Director job. I would have four direct reports and run the HR department for a company of over 200 people. The salary they offered me for this role? $72,000 a ye...

  3. Human Resources Manager

    Listen, I'm not a political person, but I'm not enjoying this debate on whether congress deserves a raise. I work at least two to three times more hours than these people and I'm making almost $100,00...

  4. Human Resources Manager

    Just saw a job posting that wanted 10 to 15 years of experience and SHRM certifications. Starting salary is $57,500 a year. It's one of the few companies hiring in my area. Flip my life.

  5. Hiring Manager

    How do you handle it when you're interviewing people fresh out of college who think their salaries should be north of $60,000? The amount of new grads who think their first job is going to pay them $7...

    IDK how it works at your company, but at mine, as the HR person, I have no control over people's salaries. So, when someone on the team finds out someone else is earning more than them and comes in de...

  7. HR Coordinator

    Alright, I haven't had a raise in almost three years, but I'm putting in 50+ hours a week. I haven't asked for a raise because I know that the company's finances haven't been great. However, I know I ...

  8. HR Manager

    The fact that I'm pushing 40 and I haven't had a job that's paid me more than $64k is kind of humiliating. I know I don't live in a giant city so salaries are lower, but other HR pros seemed to be ear...

  9. Human Resources Coordinator

    There's nothing like working 50 plus hour weeks and always being available to help the team, only to get a 1.2% raise after my annual review. That extra $700 a year really makes it all worth it. What ...

    Feeling frustrated, an employee came in with the same experience as I did and received the maximum salary placement due to working with the hiring manager prior. I promoted along with another colleagu...

    If I want to move to San Diego, would a $6,000 a month salary be enough for me to rent a nice one bedroom apartment?

    Do you ever break down your salary into an hourly wage? Because for me, I know a $92,000 salary sounds like a lot, but when I break it down to the hours I actually work, it's about $31 an hour because...

    Do you ask for raises when you feel you deserve them or is it better to wait until your annual review?

    Job listing had a salary range of $62,000 to $86,000. The job offer says I'll be earning $58,000 with the possibility of earning $25,000 in bonuses throughout the year. Does this sound legit or more l...

    Hi! I am wondering the salary of other HR Coordinators based in the Chicago area? If you can provide your years of experience, that would be helpful too. Thank you!

  17. Human Resources Executive

    If salary wasn't a factor, what would be your dream job? I think about this from time to time. I think I would be a nature photographer. But instead, I'm spending my life in a windowless office, filli...

    It's the 'now' in that headline that gets me. My salary hasn't kept up with inflation for years. Has anyone's salary been keeping up with the price of living?
