How we calculate this

Only postings that state a salary are counted. Each currency is reported on its own, never pooled or converted, so the global figure is USD-disclosed jobs only and every country row stays in its native currency. Pay reflects the mix of creator roles at Media, Entertainment & Sports companies across all seniorities, not a single job, and updates as new postings come in.
