🎯 Where do you stand?
Enter your gross monthly pay and we show what share of advertised ranges you sit above. The amount never leaves your browser — the maths runs on your device; we neither see nor store it.
ℹ️ Approximate: we compare against the MIDPOINT of advertised ranges, not actually paid salaries. Bonus, equity and benefits are not included.
🌱 Fresh ads vs full stock
Pay levels in newly posted roles move before the long-standing stock — hence a leading indicator. A cross-sectional comparison within today's live stock.

⚖️ The EU pay transparency directive must be transposed by mid-2026; it requires the pay range to be disclosed up front in hiring. This table shows, day by day, where practice actually stands.
Barely more than 5% of Hungarian ads currently publish a range — among the lowest of the countries we measure.

🔧 Exactly how we calculate
Every step from the raw ad to the figures above. If you would compute it differently, the raw snapshot is downloadable — redo the maths.
The formula
érték = (salary_min + salary_max) / 2 ← sáv-közép × periódus_szorzó ← yearly ÷12 · monthly ×1 · daily ×21 · hourly ×160 × árfolyam[currency] ← EKB középárfolyam, HUF-ra medián = percentile_cont(0.5) WITHIN GROUP (ORDER BY érték) transzp = n / total_n ← bért kiíró / összes aktív hirdetés
One ad yields one value. We take the range midpoint, convert the period to monthly, then to forint — in that order.

What we exclude, and why
- ✕ Ads without pay — we do not estimate. They only appear in the transparency denominator.
- ✕ Pay without a period — we never guess yearly vs monthly. The ad then stays without pay.
- ✕ Plausibility filter: ranges that cannot be interpreted are skipped at import rather than transformed.
- ✕ Segments below 15 ads are not shown — both for noise and identifiability.
- ✕ Outliers are NOT trimmed or smoothed. Whatever passes the filter stays — p10–p90 shows the spread.
Definitions
- ›Median: PostgreSQL
percentile_cont(0.5)with linear interpolation — the true interpolated value, not the nearest item. - ›Range midpoint:
(min + max) / 2. Where only a floor exists, it is used for both ends. - ›median_fix: the same, but at the rate fixed on the base day — only this is valid for time-series comparison.
- ›Transparency rate:
n / total_n, where the denominator is all active ads in the segment, with and without pay.
⚠️ What this figure does NOT tell you
- •It measures advertised, not paid, salary. The two can differ in both directions.
- •It excludes bonus, equity, benefits and 13th month — ads rarely quantify these.
- •Not representative of the whole labour market: it measures what is advertised through our sources.
- •Figures are gross, and tax systems differ by country — net comparison needs a separate calculator.
🔬 How we measure
- • The headline figure is the MIDPOINT of the range — neither floor nor ceiling. Both ends are reported separately.
- • Since 99.8% of the data is quoted in foreign currency, every movement is reported twice: at a fixed rate (real market movement) and at the daily rate (forint value). The difference is the currency effect.
- • We only count what the employer published in the ad. We do not ask visitors for their salary, and we do not estimate.
- • Ranges in different currencies and periods (year/month/day/hour) are converted to gross HUF/month at the daily reference rate. We never guess the period: if the source does not state it, the ad stays without salary.
- • A segment appears only with at least 15 ads behind it. Regions are reported separately, because a single blended average would hide the differences.
- • Movement is computed from our own daily snapshots, not from ad posting dates — so the timing of our imports cannot distort the trend.
- • p10–p90 marks the bottom and top tenth of the field, p25–p75 the middle half. Outliers are neither trimmed nor smoothed — the distribution is shown as it is.
