## How we source this data

Numbers come from two overlapping sources: **HiresLink's placement network** of 90,000+ pre-vetted LATAM candidates (live offer & accepted-rate data) and a cross-check against public market benchmarks. We publish P25–P75 rather than a single point so you can see the range instead of an artificially precise median.

All figures are **base monthly USD** paid gross to the contractor. They exclude HiresLink's transparent management fee, EOR fees (if you want employee status), equipment and one-off bonuses. Last updated: **June 2026**.
