When should you use Foote Partners data?

For mismatches, stale or questionable data from your usual surveys, or when you can't find a job title or the right city in those surveys.

When you *must* have the most accurate, up-to-date data possible.

When job titles don't match actual job responsibilities and you need to use IT skills pay to equalize.

When custom consulting rates for a specialized data need are out of the question, or will take too long.

When you need an answer quickly for a meeting tomorrow.

When it's too much trouble to create a job description (and you need a really good one)
