Making the most of your job search 

If salary is the key motivator in the hunt for your next job, you can make it a priority in your search. 

SEEK’s salary filter lets you search for jobs by salary, even if an employer doesn’t show the salary range on the job ad. It helps you save time and energy by showing you the jobs that meet your salary needs.  

As the cost of living continues to rise, money is likely on your mind. Knowledge of salary trends in your industry can help you work through your next pay negotiation. Focus on the facts and be sure to highlight the value that you bring.
