First, cover the basics the ads ask for most (see the requirements above: cad (100%), python (91%), machine learning (64%), sql (36%)). Then look at what separates higher-paid ads:
Too few ads publish a pay range to compare, so we do not rank items by pay.
We describe only what the ads state. We do not know how recruiters rank candidates.
Where else the same role family is open, with the pay each posts:
