Does posting without a public salary range reduce my visibility?

When you post a job on Get on Board and choose to hide the salary range, this can affect your posting’s practical visibility—particularly early clicks and how many candidates decide to apply.

Short answer

Yes, it can. Hiding salary means candidates have less upfront information to decide whether to apply, which typically lowers volume compared with posting a visible range.

What happens in confidential salary mode

  • Full-time jobs and internships still require a salary range to publish.
  • With a subscription, you can hide that range in public views.
  • Applicants still see the salary range during the application flow.

What this does not mean

  • It does not mean your job will stop appearing.
  • Showing salary does not guarantee better results in every case.
  • Impact also depends on role clarity, seniority, work mode, and market competition.

When to review your approach

If you get many views but few applications, compare confidential vs visible salary to check whether compensation transparency is affecting conversion.
