Cha-ching. When the calendar turned over to 2023, a new law went into effect in Washington that requires employers to list salary info in job postings. You should now see the lowest and highest possible pay for each position, alongside benefits offered.
That’s good news for Seattleites searching for new gigs with the biggest compensation. Just to make things even easier for you, we found some of the highest paying positions recently listed via ZipRecruiter, many of which are within the city’s top industries.
Happy hunting.
