NAME job spreadsheet 02/19/2026

This is the 13th-ish posting of my NAME job spreadsheet. To remind folk, I just went to the site and jotted down the salaries of the offerings. This does not include perqs like moving expenses, etc, so you need to look yourself. Some ads just have “up to” salaries (e.g. “Up to $290,000”) but no lower bound. I just put the same number in both.

This is only for FP ads.  Fellowship, Lay Coroner, and Investigator ads are rare and not included.

For those sites that do not have a posted salary, I put $0. Obviously, that does not mean that the salary is really zero, but it keeps the columns numerical in the Excel speadsheet. The “average” line does *not* include the zero entries in the calculation.

St Paul, MN just said “mid $200,000” so I put in $250,000 as the min and $270,000 as the max; if someone in St Paul doesn’t like this, let me know.

Denver, CO had both a “min and max” and a min and max “target” salaries.   I used the target salaries.  If you are interested in Denver, you can ask them what the difference is.

The Knoxville dollars columns are the posted salaries adjusted to a single cost of living (Knoxville, because I live there).  The conversion factors are a bit different than last time.  I don’t know if it’s because of the site I use or if Knoxville has gotten that much more expensive (all those New Yorker and Californians moving in have jacked up housing costs).

As always, caveat emptor. I do not guarantee accuracy. Any Chiefs who see an error, feel free to contact me.

You can click on the little arrows in the labels to sort by a column.

You can use the bar at the bottom to scroll horizontally.
