The agreed monthly salary of the hire. Estimates shown before you hire use the top of the salary range you published, so the real invoice is never higher than the estimate you saw.

Do you run payroll or act as employer of record?

Do I have to publish the salary?

Yes. Every role on EmpleosTech shows its salary range. It is what makes the matching honest and it is why candidates answer.
