Published salary figures for this trade disagree with each other by more than $25,000. This shows you all of them at once, with what each one measured, instead of averaging them into a number that describes nobody.

How to read this

  • Every figure keeps its source and the date it was published. Nothing here is averaged or estimated.
  • Experience adjustments are a rule of thumb applied to the mid-career figure, not survey data. They are labelled as such wherever they appear.
  • For the underlying methodology, the BLS Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics series for occupation 27-1023 is the only source that publishes one.
