Our pages are based on the occupations that TurboTax customers list on their tax returns.
Since the occupation that someone lists on a tax return may not always match their job title, we
use approximation to help categorize similar occupations. For example, if you search for "teacher"
salaries, you might also see salaries for jobs like "Teacher's Assistant" or "Preschool Teacher."
Also, keep in mind that people working in the same occupation may have different levels of experience
or education (and sometimes special degrees or certifications). If an occupation page includes insights
for both entry-level and senior-level employees, you might see a wider range of salaries.
