Methodology
Freelance Radar continuously finds contract jobs posted publicly on LinkedIn by recruiters, agencies and hiring managers in Singapore. This barometer aggregates the 18 contract jobs from the last 90 days with an explicit rate in Singapore dollars, out of 171 contract jobs found in total. 0% of these rates are quoted per month; daily and hourly rates are converted to a monthly rate on the basis of 21.75 working days a month and an 8 hour day. When a post gives a range, the classifier keeps a single value for it. Values are medians (less sensitive to outliers than an average); the range runs from the 25th to the 75th percentile. Only specialisations with enough rates are shown. Monthly rates outside S$2,500 to S$40,000 are excluded.
