The median is the central value in an ordered set of salary offers: half are below, half are above. This is not the arithmetic mean and not a guaranteed income for every worker in the respective profession.
When searching for a job, these figures should be compared with the scope, volume of responsibilities, experience requirements, and the method of payment calculation. Regional salary variations are also important: the national average does not mean identical offers in every city.
