Salaries
Career Journal - Salary Data and Hiring Trends
Salary tables and hiring data for hundreds of fields; also shows different pay levels within careers for more senior levels, etc. A Salary Calculator for comparing pay levels between different areas, as well as a Salary Search: what does this job pay in this particular area? The site also displays the latest news about salaries, and salary trends, in various segments of the job market, culled from the Wall Street Journal daily. These articles are very current, and there is a large archive as well.

The Salary Expert
Lots of stuff on the salaries here, including a “Salary Report” for hundreds of job titles, varying by area, skill level, and experience.

Salary.com
Probably the most visited of all the salary-specific job sites; a few years ago, they were getting over two million visitors per month, and I doubt it is any less now. If it has to do with salaries, it's here; many other salary sites use resources from this one.

JobStar Salary Surveys
One of the best list of salary surveys on the Net; other sites claiming to have big salary surveys actually just link to this one, the Mother of all salary surveys - over 300 of them. Before you choose a career, before you hunt for a job, before you go in for the hiring interview; maybe even before you start 6th grade, you should know this information!
