Job seekers never pay to use this board. An Apply button opens the employer's own application page, or the page of the recruiting firm filling the seat; only where a company or its recruiting firm pays us for a hire who came from here does that link carry our referral code, and the fee comes from them, never out of the base or OTE the role offers you.

Ask before you sign
California has required a pay scale in job postings since 1 January 2023, for employers with 15 or more employees, and 84% of the open sales roles on this page posted pay on 1 November 2026. Ask whether the range is base or on-target earnings, and how any equity vests.
Posted pay for each kind of seat
Each row's band comes from that kind's own open postings in this market, by the method behind every band on the board (from the 25th percentile of the midpoints of posted ranges (each counted as yearly pay, a rate per hour at 2,080 hours) to the 90th percentile of their top ends); a row needs three distinct posted ranges before it gets one. Every figure is yearly pay in US dollars; where a posting quotes a rate per hour, week or month, it is multiplied by 2,080, 52 or 12 to make a full-time year (40 hours over 52 weeks).
Requirements named in the postings

How much does a California sales seat pay?
The open California sales roles carry 2,477 separate posted pay ranges.
