Show HN: Crowdsourced salary prediction

Excellent work. Something to consider would be to constrain salary estimates to the same industry based on LinkedIn profile endorsements my profile contains.

For example, I'm an IT professional. When I clicked "Predict salaries", a profile for someone in the financial industry was displayed. I have no idea what they should be making.

Thanks :) Scoring is one of the criteria we are looking into. We need to be careful not to bias predictions too much towards high scoring predictors. We are now filtering profiles by country. Once we get to a healthy user base, we will introduce more filtering options.

No problem! I've thought many times how to solve this problem, but all of the data is opaque :( Wish you guys well!
