Who says what they pay
12 of the 4,319 openings that carry a description state a pay figure — 0.28%. The other 288 openings have no description, so they are not counted here.
| What the posting says | Open roles | Share of described |
|---|---|---|
| States a pay range | 4 | |
| States a pay figure | 8 | |
| Mentions pay, no figure | 576 | |
| Says nothing about pay | 3,731 |
Too few postings state a figure for a change over time to mean anything, so no trend is shown until at least 30 do. A figure counts only when a pay word appears beside it, so a car allowance or a signing bonus is not read as a salary. Only shekel figures count: a US or European pay range quoted in a global employer's posting describes a job in that country, not this one.
What the published figures say
We do not estimate salaries. Each row below is a figure somebody else published, shown with who published it, what it measures and when.
| Part of the economy | Figure | What it measures | Source |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hi-tech | ₪31,332 | gross monthly, per employee job | CBS 039/2026 |
| Whole economy | ₪13,588 | gross monthly, per employee job | CBS 039/2026 |
| Financial corporations | ₪21,499 | gross monthly, per employee job | CBS 039/2026 |
Hi-tech accounted for 9.8% of all employee jobs in the economy in the period these figures describe. Where a publisher stated no sample size, the row says so rather than leaving it blank. How these numbers are produced
Questions about pay in this market
What does hi-tech pay in Israel?
The one official figure worth pointing at is the Central Bureau of Statistics': ₪31,332 gross per month, averaged per employee job in the hi-tech branches, for 11/2025. The wording matters — that is an average per employee JOB, not per employee, so a half-time post counts as a post and drags the average below what a full-time salary looks like. It describes the sector, not an offer for any particular role.
Why do Israeli job ads not say what they pay?
Because almost no employer does, and that is measured rather than assumed. Of 4,319 open postings that carry a description, 12 state a figure or a range — 0.28%. Employers give competitive pressure and room to negotiate as the reasons; the practical result is an Israeli job market that publishes almost no pay at all.
How do you know what each role pays?
We do not, and we publish no estimate. There is no per-role pay figure here and we will not invent one: the figures that do circulate in this market come from panels nobody can reproduce, from recruiter tables that state neither method nor sample size, and from sites carrying self-reported pay. What we can publish is how often a posting states pay at all — a number nobody else in this market publishes.
Why not just average the salary sites together?
Because they do not measure the same thing. The CBS figure is a gross monthly wage per employee job; international sites often report total compensation including equity, sometimes in dollars; recruiter tables state no sample or method at all. An average of those three is a number with no unit, appearing in no publication, that no reader can trace to a source. So the table here shows each source on its own row, with its basis and its date, and computes nothing between them.
Where can I see what a specific job pays?
Only in the posting itself, when the employer chose to write it — which, as above, is rare. You can search the open roles here and open the employer's original posting; if a figure is there, it is in their own text. We never add a pay field of our own to any listing.
