How “typical” is worked out
"Typical" is the middle of those 19 other postings' minimums and of their maximums, leaving this job out. The therapy pay page for Washington counts every therapy posting in Washington with a pay range, not only respiratory therapist jobs, so its typical range is different: $41.00–$60.00. A posted range isn't what a new hire is paid: where someone starts depends on experience and, at union employers, the step on the pay scale. 9 of these 19 postings also offer a sign-on or hiring bonus (up to $20,000), not counted here.
