How are starting salaries determined?
Our compensation program does not include formal salary ranges. Salaries for WHOI jobs are based on benchmark studies. In most cases, the typical hiring range is 80-90% of a benchmark salary that is determined by these studies. If you are the final candidate for a position, your background will be compared to other incumbents as part of an analysis for equity purposes. If you have specific salary requirements, you should indicate that when applying on-line.
