Re: Salary Survey Bill Campbell 01 Jul 2004 13:54 EST
I think this is a great idea. I suggest adding one further category matched to salary level: something like years of experience, though I'm not sure that's the right wording. On the face of it, a new director with 5 yrs total experience should make much less than a grizzled veteran director with similar responsibilities at the same kind of place; the survey should enable a user to distinguish the two.
