This is the 21st-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 \u201cup to\u201d salaries (e.g. \u201cUp to $290,000\u201d) but no lower bound. I just put the same number in both. Same thing for \u201cstarting at\u201d salaries.<\/p>\n

This is only for full time FP ads. Fellowship, Lay Coroner, and Investigator ads are rare and not included.<\/p>\n

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 spreadsheet. The \u201caverage\u201d line does *not* include the zero entries in the calculation.<\/p>\n

I converted the Calgary advertisement to US dollars as of today (10\/16\/2026).\u00a0 This will, of course, vary from day to day.<\/p>\n

The Knoxville dollars columns are the posted salaries adjusted to a single cost of living (Knoxville, because I live there).<\/p>\n

I’ve added URLs for the advertisements, and I’ve added a column for the source of the cost of living thing.<\/p>\n

As always, caveat emptor. I do not guarantee accuracy. Any Chiefs who see an error, feel free to contact me.<\/p>\n

You can click on the little arrows in the labels to sort by a column.<\/p>\n
