Whither the Canadian portion of the STC salary survey?
Subject:Whither the Canadian portion of the STC salary survey? From:Peter Kelly <peter_kelly -at- sockeyesupplychain -dot- com> To:"techwr-l -at- lists -dot- techwr-l -dot- com" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- techwr-l -dot- com> Date:Tue, 13 Nov 2007 15:05:47 -0500
Hi everybody,
I have sinned the sin of cross-posting I cannot tell a lie. But I really want to know! I would like to bring the fact that the STC no longer seems to conduct salary surveys that apply to Canada. From now on they will use US government data since they judge this more accurate than surveying their membership. I would like to know where that leaves their Canadian members. We have little information-as far as I know- other than that which we gather ourselves through the grapevine by talking to colleagues or recruiters. Am I right in assuming there is now no Canadian salary data that will be distributed through the STC? Am I missing something?
Fun fall frolic to all,
Peter Kelly
