Questions about the calculator
How accurate is the SkillCircle Salary Calculator?
It gives an estimated range, not a guaranteed figure. Actual pay depends on the employer, responsibilities, negotiation, education, portfolio and market conditions. Each result shows a data confidence level so you know how much weight to give it.
Is my current salary shared with anyone?
No. Current salary is optional and is only used to compare against the estimated market midpoint on your screen. It's never included in share cards or share links.
What is the SkillCircle Salary Score?
A 0–100 indicator created by SkillCircle. It weighs your experience, how well your skills cover what employers ask for in your chosen career, your city's pay level, and the career's typical pay level. It isn't an official industry score.
Why do skills change my estimate?
Within the same role and city, people who cover more in-demand skills tend to be considered for better-paying roles. The calculator adjusts the estimate within sensible limits for your career and experience level, so skills can lift or lower it but never push it to unrealistic numbers.
Can I compare different careers?
Yes. After your result, use "Compare careers" or pick a similar career to see its range with your experience and city, without starting over.
