Methodology
Sources: employers' own career feeds, curated boards and official sources; every ad links to its original posting. Language requirement is detected per ad (explicit statements + ad language), not assumed. Salaries normalize to gross EUR/year (ranges count as their midpoint, monthly ×12); only the 13% of ads that disclose pay are counted, and buckets under 5 ads are hidden. Data refreshes daily at 04:00 UTC. Numbers are free to cite with a link (CC BY 4.0).
